More about the Champagne Jacquesson 'Cuvée 747': Champagne Jacquesson’s Cuvée 747 is part of the house’s numbered cuvée series—an innovative and distinctive approach that began with Cuvée 728, highlighting vintage-specific character over non-vintage uniformity. Cuvée 747 is built on the base of the 2019 vintage, complemented by reserve wines from previous years, and crafted exclusively from Grand and Premier Cru vineyards in the Vallée de la Marne, Côte des Blancs, and Montagne de Reims. Predominantly composed of Chardonnay, with supporting portions of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, this cuvée reflects both the purity of place and the transparent, terroir-driven philosophy that defines Jacquesson. The 2019 growing season was marked by warm, dry conditions that yielded grapes of excellent ripeness and natural acidity—ideal for a house known for precision and restraint. Cuvée 747 was vinified in large oak foudres with minimal intervention, underwent no filtration, and experienced extended aging on the lees before being disgorged with a low dosage of just 0.75 g/L. The result is a Champagne of impressive tension and clarity, where orchard fruit, toasted almond, and wet stone harmonize with a long, mineral-driven finish. In a region often focused on blending consistency, Jacquesson’s numbered cuvées are a refreshing commitment to authenticity—each bottle a snapshot of the vintage and vineyards that shaped it. Cuvée 747 stands as a refined and cerebral expression of Champagne: dry, detailed, and unapologetically terroir-focused. For those who seek nuance over noise, and origin over ornamentation, this is a wine that speaks in subtleties and rewards attention with every glass.
