A relatively young Champagne house founded in 1964, Jacquart is a grower-producer with a traditionally strong focus on Chardonnay. This blend features ripe stone fruit aromas in white peach and nectarine, with pear, baked bread and almond nougat. It translates into a generous mouthful. The combination of time in bottle (three years) and 30% reserve wine brings texture, good depth of complexity and all-round flavour development, upheld with lemon zest energy and clean acidity. A splash of salty mineral tang finishes this most attractive Champagne.
