Jacquesson Champagne Extra Brut Cuvee 744 NV

$7999

The 744 cuvée is based on the 2016 vintage - a complicated year in Champagne that produced beautiful and concentrated wines for those who were careful and meticulous like the Chiquet brothers. Aged on the lees for 48 months with a few extra months in oak, the result is even more complex than previous releases. Almond cream, spring blossoms and white peaches, finishing on a crunchy apple note and crushed rock salt – with an elegance and length that is unparalleled.

More about Jacquesson

In the last 10 years, Grower Champagne--Champagne made by small farmers rather than big factories--has exploded on the scene. It's tempting to think that before this happened Americans just drank mass-produced sparkling wines from industrial concerns.

But actually, even in those old, less enlightened days, there was one important Champagne that was made on a small artisanal scale--one Champagne that in-the-know Champagne drinkers would avidly seek out at top stores in the U.S., or order, nodding wisely, off the best wine lists in Paris: Jacquesson.

Times have changed. But Jacquesson still make incredible boutique wines. If anything, the quality has gotten even better: improved farming (they abandoned herbicides) and a greater focus on single vintages and single vineyards have made the wines more terroir and vintage specific than ever.

But their recipe in the winery remains traditional and unchanged. The wines are made in large old oak vats. There is battonage (stirring of the lees, which gives added breadth and richness to the wine) just once per week. The wines are not filtered and dosage is minimal.

Yes, this sounds a bit like many of the Champagnes made today by fashionable new grower-producers. But for Jacquesson it comes naturally. They've been doing it this way for a long time. This experience and tradition speaks volumes in the very high quality of the wine.
