Description
Jean-Manuel Jacquinot obtained a degree in Oenology at the esteemed University of Reims. After this he became trainee oenologist at the world famous house of Veuve Clicquot. Today, Jean-Manuel has over 20 years of experience in making Champagne, is a Member of the French Oenologist Association, and is a qualified taster at the Comité Interprofessionnel des Vins de Champagne (CIVC). But Jean-Manuel is not a man to just rest on his laurels; he consulted to several fledgling English vineyards including Nyetimber and Ridgeview, winning several gold medals, as well as the trophy for the Best Sparkling wine in the International Wines and Spirits Competition- trumping many of the biggest names in France. He also consulted in Canada, winning gold for the best sparkling wine for Niagara Falls Wines. Safe to say Jean-Manuel knows how to make world-class sparkling wines! This Champagne is very lively, very fresh, with notes of fresh and candied lemon. The dress is a pale gold-green color. Wine without malolactic fermentation, which allows it to retain the liveliness and finesse of Chardonnay, it is neither filtered nor refrigerated. The very fine bubbles pearl and charm the palate. Aromas of acacia flower and honey develop. The liveliness and complexity give it great length. The minerality and salty hint make it ideal for pairing with oysters, seafood and fish. It goes well with sunny summer aperitifs.
