Guardians of the heritage and know-how of their ancestors for 3 generations, Champagne Yves Jacques run the family vineyard planted with the three Champagne grape varieties in the Marne Valley, the Cote des Blancs and the Aube, in the communes of Sézanne, Baye, but also Chouilly and Ay, classified as Grand Cru. Their Champagne wines are made in Baye, in their own cellars and in accordance with the traditional method.

About the wine

This plot located in the place called “La Cave” in the south part of the Chouilly’s vineyard classified Grand Cru. Its chalky subsoil typical of the Côte des Blancs and its exceptional exposure give very balanced wines for this sunny vintage like 2015.

Tasting notes

Vinification & ageing in oak barrels reveals the quintessence of this terroir with preserved freshness after a long ageing in the cellar. We find the expression of the great Chardonnays. The aromas of roasted coffee mingle with scents of pastries with spicy notes. On the palate, a fresh attack is balanced by a more concentrated finish. A Great Wine which is appreciated as a parenthesis of suspended happiness!

Food pairing

Elegant vintage champagne from a great vintage with a rich mousse that goes perfectly with everything from oysters to monkfish. Serve around 8 degrees.
