The Wine

Jacquesson Cuvée 742 Extra Brut is a terroir-driven, vintage-based Champagne from one of the most revered and independent-minded producers in the region. Unlike many houses, Jacquesson numbers each cuvée to highlight the distinct character of its base vintage—in this case, the 2014 vintage, a year of finesse and tension.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Fresh and focused, with aromas of green apple, lemon zest and hints of brioche.

Palate: Taut and vibrant, revealing layers of citrus, orchard fruits, toasted nuts, and subtle spice. The fine mousse and precise acidity create a racy, mineral-driven profile.

Finish: Long and refined, with lingering notes of citrus peel, and chalk, making it a perfect Champagne for food.
