WINE DESCRIPTION
The Jean Josselin Cuvée des Jean Champagne is a luxurious offering from a family-owned estate that has been perfecting the art of winemaking since 1854. Nestled in the prestigious Champagne appellation of France, the vineyards are characterized by their chalky soil and favorable climatic conditions, contributing to the high quality of the grapes. This cuvée is expertly crafted using a blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay grapes, undergoing traditional fermentation and aging in the bottle for at least two years.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
On the nose, this Champagne offers enticing aromas of ripe apples, citrus fruits, and delicate floral notes.These aromas are complemented by hints of brioche and toasted almonds, adding complexity to the bouquet.
The palate is equally impressive, with a lively and persistent effervescence that dances on the tongue. The flavors of crisp apples and zesty citrus fruits take center stage, accompanied by subtle notes of honey and freshly baked bread. The wine's acidity is well-integrated, providing a refreshing and vibrant mouthfeel.
The Jean Josselin Cuvée des Jean Champagne is a versatile wine that can be enjoyed on its own as an aperitif or paired with a variety of dishes. Its bright acidity and delicate flavors make it a perfect match for seafood, particularly oysters and shellfish. It also pairs well with creamy cheeses and light desserts.
