2000 Dégorgement Tardif

Jacquesson, founded in 1798 and now based in Dizy, is regarded by connoisseurs as a house with a clear, distinctive signature. This magnum of the 2000 vintage was disgorged in January 2016. A dégorgement tardif this late is reserved for wines that spend over 15 years on the lees and can carry that time. The result is a champagne with maturity and depth.

There are only 114 magnums of this bottling, which makes it a true rarity. The large bottle suits a festive gathering where the wine is given time and attention. Serve it slightly warmer, at 10 to 12 °C, in a large white wine glass. The magnum comes in a gift box.
