Champagne Jacquesson
Cuvée n° 747

The Champagne Cuvée n° 747 by Jacquesson is a blend of wines from the same vintage (year 2019), completed with approximately 30% Vins de Réserve stored in the cellar for several years. In this process, it becomes essential to capture the best of each vintage while avoiding denying the variations specific to each harvest. For this blend, the Chiquet brothers selected 75% of the best Pinot Noir and Meunier grapes from vineyards around the villages of Aÿ, Dizy, Champillon and Hautvillers, and 25% Chardonnay grapes from vineyards in the villages of Avize and Oiry. This Cuvée comes in 186,372 bottles, 9,002 Magnums and 400 Jéroboams. A final dosage of just 1,5 g/l is reached for this extremely fresh and pleasant Champagne Extra Brut.

Champagne Jacquesson

The Maison has had the name of its founder since 1978. It had a great success from the beginning, thanks to the quality of its wines. The Jacquesson Champagne was Napoleon's favourite and in 1810 the Emperor gave the maison one of the most significant acknowledgement of that time, a gold metal for "la Beauté et la Richesse de ses Caves" (the beauty and richness of the caves). Today the Maison Jacquesson & Fils is proud to follow the path traced by its glorious founders and concentrates its efforts in an annual production of 350,000 bottles, with non-industrial methods, obtaining the higher quality standards ever. This old but small maison in Dizy, not far from Aÿ, under the wise guide of the Chiquet brothers is one of the biggest companies in the Champagne region and despite its success, it never increased its production. Grapes come mainly from owned vineyards (28 hectares), 11 of which are located in Côte de Blancs, in Avize. A rigorous vinification, followed by an excellent aging, lead to Vintage Cuvées, sold not according to their chronological order but their maturity. A low dosage (all vintage are elaborated as Extra Brut) preserves the fineness and pureness of the wine.
