Jacquinot Blanc de Blancs (750ml)
Certified Sustainable Viticulture in Champagne

Made from a single vineyard named l’Almeida, and from a single year 2017. No Malolactic fermentation and no filtration. This wine was developed after few years of experimentation. This Blanc de Blancs is very fresh and young, with nice lemony characteristics. Dosage at 9.6 g/l The malolactic fermentation is not done and the base wine is unfiltered.The colour is pale green and gold.

Tasting Note:
The tiny bubbles charm the palate and keep a long body of acacia honey and white flowers and lime. The minerality and the ever so subtle salty characteristic makes this wine an ideal pairing for oysters and scampi, but also as a summer appetizer and a nice desert.

Grapes: Chardonnay

Awards: Silver Medal Singapore 2019

Product Details

HISTORY of the Family Jacquinot
Pierre Jacquinot and his two sons, Jacques and Jean-Guy, created Champagne Jacquinot & Fils in 1947. Pierre was seriously injured in WWI by a mustard gas attack when he was just 18 years old, and so he decided to convert his physically demanding family farm into a vineyard once he returned from the war. Once returned from the war, he also became a grape broker for Champagne Mercier, which required him to buy and sell grapes from the local grape growers. In 1929, he set up his own pressing centre to process the purchased grapes. As he was injured in the war, he spent his winters on the French Riviera to rest and recover. To sustain himself during the winters, he sold Champagne for Champagne Watteau. After the Second World War, Pierre and his two sons decided to produce their own Champagne since they already had all of the necessary supplies: a vineyard, a pressing centre, a small winery and a network of customers. At that time, it was impossible to make and sell Champagne from any town other than Reims or Epernay, and so that is why they purchased this winery here in Epernay. Today, our family has 17 ha (42 acres) of vines, and we grow the traditional three Champagne varietals: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Jean-Manuel Jacquinot, the son of Jean-Guy, has been the oenologist and wine maker at Champagne Jacquinot since 1998, and became the executive director in 2009. François Nicolet, Jacques’ son-in-law, joined the company in 2009 as the marketing manager.

GRAPE GROWING
