About the Wine

Meet Andre Jacquart, the epitome of grower Champagne. For four generations, the Jacquart family focused solely on cultivating the finest Champagne grapes. But in 1958, André Jacquart broke tradition, creating his own estate-bottled Champagne in the prestigious Le Mesnil-sur-Oger Grand Cru.

Fast forward to 2004, and the torch passed to Marie Doyard, André’s granddaughter, who moved the operation to Vertus Premier Cru. With a passion for vinification in oak barrels, extended aging, and minimal dosage, Marie infused the brand with her unique vision. Fun fact: Marie's paternal grandfather, Maurice Doyard, played a key role in establishing the AOC Champagne and defining its vineyard areas.

Champagne André Jacquart isn't just about tradition; it's about innovation and respect for the terroir. In 2019, the estate earned the HVE 3 certification for sustainable winegrowing, a testament to their commitment to quality and the environment. Join us in celebrating a Champagne house that perfectly blends history with a forward-thinking spirit!

 80% Pinot Noir, 20% Chardonnay. Nose of cherry and wild strawberry, herbs and a floral note. Creamy vinous texture, even tannic. Chambolle-like flavors, with cassis and strawberries. Persistent fine bubbles. Very long finish.

Critical Reviews

Firm, chalky and tactile in texture, with ripe blackberry and macerated cassis fruit flavors layered with ground spice, pastry dough, graphite and salted almond notes. Well-knit, presenting a spicy and citrusy finish. Disgorged November 2013. Drink now. 105 cases imported. ~92 Wine Spectator
