Jacquesson Cuvée 738 NV

Dense and muscular with a coarse, aggressive mousse that needs time to settle. The mid-palate shows impressive concentration, stone fruits, wildflower honey and fresh mint building to a weighty finish. Built for the long haul rather than immediate charm. The 2010-based blend (61% Chardonnay, 21% Meunier, 18% Pinot Noir) delivers power over polish at this stage.
