Champagne Jacquesson Corne Bautray Dizy 1er Cru 2005 Late Disgorgement

The Champagne Jacquesson Corne Bautray Dizy 1er Cru 2005 Late Disgorgement is a blanc de blancs of great personality, made from 100% Chardonnay and designed for those seeking a refined, deep, and gastronomic Champagne. Signed by Jacquesson, it combines precision, complexity, and mineral tension in an essential but richly nuanced extra brut profile.

Territory and wine style

The grapes come from Dizy, in the Montagne de Reims area, from a plot located at the top of a steep slope facing southwest. The clay soil with pebbles on a chalky matrix contributes to giving the wine finesse, energy, and a sensation of great clarity. The 2005 harvest and the long aging on the lees, combined with the late disgorgement, define a mature and complex style, supported by a very low dosage.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it shows a bright golden color and a very persistent perlage. The bouquet opens with hints of lemon, vanilla, and freshly baked brioche, then shifts towards slightly spicy and more evolved sensations. On the palate, it is broad, rich, and layered, with a well-defined freshness that balances the creamy component and the character from long aging. The finish is elegant, with floral and fruity returns and a persistence of great finesse.
