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!
His 'Private Cuvee' is an amazing NV house Champagne - trumping all supermarket brands. Produced using Grand Cru fruit, the Champagnes of Jean-Manuel Jacquinot have been favourites of the United Cellars portfolio for years with customers & staff always eagerly awaiting the next shipment.
The hue is golden and the tiny bubbles form a persistent and delicate mousse. The Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in this vintage are expressed in a fresh and fruity bouquet. Its roundness and freshness are perfectly balanced making way for a long and creamy finish. Pure class!
