Jacquesson Cuvee 748 Extra Brut Champagne

55% of the harvest came from Aÿ, Dizy, Hautvillers and Champillon and 45% from Avize and Oiry. Winter was mild and very wet whereas spring was particularly sunny and dry. After the stormy June weather, drought set in and these conditions prevailed until the end of September. Beautifully balanced and ripe grapes were harvested early from 26th August until 10th September. Respectful soil management and plant cultivation methods with the aim of expressing plot diversity. Vinification and ageing in large wooden vats on the lees without either filtration or fining. Our Chardonnay grapes characterise this blend despite the addition of reserve wines from the 747 to 743 and the 741 cuvees.
