CHAMPAGNE JACQUESSON CHAMP CAIN AVIZE GRAND CRU 2013 AST. CL 75
Champagne
Jacquesson Avize Champ Cain 2013
A Grand Cru from a single hectare, located in Avize, perfectly south-facing, with an optimal position for Chardonnay grapes: from these magical soils comes the Extra Brut “Champ Caïn” Champagne, one of the four lieux-dits produced by the Jacquesson Maison only in great vintages.
Vintage: 2013
Grapes: 100% Chardonnay, exclusively from vines planted in 1960 at the base of a south-facing hill in the commune of Avize
Denomination: Champagne AOC
Vinification and aging: in barrels, where malolactic fermentation is fully carried out, it then remains on the lees for 8 years before disgorgement
Dosage: 2 gr/L
Alcohol content: 12%
Serving temperature: 6/8 °C
Pairings: A wine with a decidedly important, outstanding structure, which therefore requires equally elaborate pairings. Excellent as an aperitif for a special moment, it is perfect throughout the meal, paired with fish and shellfish preparations. To be tried with oysters.
