Jacquart

Blanc de Blancs Chardonnay 2006

1996 Jacquart Blanc de Blanc Champagne Chardonnay. Elegant in every way, and a special gift from Fanie (the Superstar!) and Nicolas. Tastes like Speculoos-flavored Meert gauffres, puff pastry, lemon meringue, yellow apple. We had this with an excellent foie gras produced by François, J. Jacques et Benjamin Nauris from Lahosse in France's Landes region. The foie gras was a gift from our dear friends François and Marie Claude in Paris. — 12 years ago

Merci pour ce commentaire, I am happy you enjoyed our Champagne !! It seems we must buy another bootle to try it ourselves !

Fanie, we enjoyed this Jacquart a lot! Merci!! It goes great with foie gras. If I recall correctly, the merchant who sold you this Jacquart proposed it as an alternative to Ruinart. They are both excellent champagnes but to me, they have different characteristics. The best analogy I can give you is that if Ruinart is shiny stainless steel, Jacquart is like soft velvet.
