Blanc de Blancs 2015
Champagne Jacquart has unveiled a new, very ethereal interpretation of its Blanc de Blancs. A 100% Chardonnay label offering morning purity.
D2015 will be remembered for its soaring temperatures when the scorching summer heat called for early harvesting. To counterbalance the ripeness of this very hot vintage, Champagne Jacquart created a blend of Premiers and Grands Crus from the Côte des Blancs - Chouilly, Oger, Avize and Le Mesnil sur Oger – but also from the Montagne de Reims, in Villers-Marmery and Trépail, where the House headed in search of fresh, subtle Chardonnays. The resultant Champagne is very ethereal and expresses soft freshness. A challenge that proved all the more difficult considering the weather that year.
Subtly zesty but with its hallmark finesse, the Champagne gives the nose a wake-up call with its energy before enveloping it in notes of white flowers, buttercups and wild plants. On the palate, the supple, fresh attack leads into fine effervescence supported by a lemony acidity that is almost soft, once again underscoring its impeccable balance. The Champagne reveals substantial purity, developing over extensive length across the ethereal part of the palate, showcased by a fleshy aftertaste.
