André Jacquart Expérience Millésime Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Extra Brut (75cl)

This is the vintage Champagne of the André Jacquart house, a Blanc de Blancs made from Chardonnay from the Grand Cru village of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger in the Côte des Blancs. The grapes are picked at the point where aroma, minerality and Chardonnay's natural acidity are in near balance. Unlike the other wines in the Expérience range, it ferments entirely in Burgundy oak barrels, which add delicate vanilla and sweet spice. It then spends 7 years on its lees, giving a rich, structured wine. The nose offers white flowers and yeast. The palate is vibrant and structured, with marked minerality that lifts the fruit in the finish.
