JACQUESSON Champagne The NV Brut Cuvee N° 735 is a gorgeous, fleshy wine laced with radiant fruit. Lemon, white flowers, spices, satisfying Champagne. A round, creamy finish wraps things up in style. The 735 got better and better over time, always a good sign. The 735 is 72% 2007 juice, 47% Chardonnay, 33% Pinot Noir and 20% Meunier. It is a bit richer, rounder and express very well the terroir where is coming from. It is a wine with richness and power. The touch of steel give a great final bite. I drank the bottle with a basmati risotto with saffron e leeks to start and finish with poached spring onion    blenched in butter with button mushroom caramelized on honey and fennel pollen dehydrate. look this video a bit rude about Jean Herve Chiquet talking on Italians spoken second language, envy perhaps for our beautiful climate and land...... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuhW1Hs8_FY
