An exceptionally rare parcel-based selection from the cellar collection of Domaine Jacquesson. For aficionados of great Champagne wines and the Jacquesson estate:
The cuvée Avize Champ Cain is a rare terroir vintage Champagne produced by Jacquesson. 100% Grand Cru, pure Chardonnay, vinified with respect for the terroir and vintage origin. The 12,000 vines were planted in 1962 on approximately 1.3 hectares of brown limestone soil, clay-sandy-silty with chalk gravel over Campanian chalk. Champ Caïn faces south, located in the finest terroirs of Avize. Made without compromise, brilliantly executed, and world-class; 0 g/l of sugar (Brut Nature), delivering crystalline precision and purity thanks to the extremely chalky terroir, with a swift and pronounced acidity befitting a Grand Cru. Unique, magnificent, and inimitable in style. An exceptional Blanc de Blancs Champagne!
Ultra rare this degorgement tardif of the 2005 vintage ! 17 years on the yeast, degorgement in march 2023.
