JACQUESSON Dizy Corne Bautray 2014 Magnum

An exceptionally rare parcel-based selection from the cellar collection of Domaine Jacquesson. For aficionados of great Champagne wines and the Jacquesson estate:

100% Chardonnay, from a 1 ha plot that was planted in 1960, issued from old vines in the cool, breezy upper reaches of the eponymous Dizy hills. Vinification in oak barrels. This Blanc de Blancs translates into a metaphorically cool, laid-back wine that for some tasters – and especially when first opened – might seem slightly aloof. But there is dazzling complexity here, as well as the impeccably balance – at near bone dryness.

From this Cuvée only 5'68 bottles and 300 magnums were produced !  

Like all lieu-dits wines from Jacquesson, also this one has been matured on natural cork (sous-liège).
