An assertive Champagne, full, almost aggressive at the moment, needing time to soften and assemble, but for those who like a more upfront style look no further. There is some peachy fruit and roasted nut qualities, an intense acid grip yet it is somewhat creamy owing to its oak vinification.

Jacquesson Memmie Jacquesson founded the Champagne House which bears his name in 1798. A favourite of Emperor Napoleon, he awarded the House a Gold medal for its outstanding commercial enterprise in 1810. Memmie’s son succeeded his father and was responsible for many inventions in the production of Champagne some of which are still used today. The House only makes 350,000 bottles annually which allows the wines to be meticulously handcrafted, avoiding any compromise that comes with bulk production and ensures that Jacquesson remains considered in the top six of Champagne Houses.
