Vintage: NV
Bottle size: 75cl
Grape: 85% Chardonnay 15% Aligoté

An exceptionally elegant Blanc de Blancs with aromas of crisp citrus fruits married with notes of toasted brioche and butter. Crisp and refreshing on the palate, with a fine mousse and a vibrant acidity which carries the complex flavours onto the lingering finish.
The 'JCB Caviar' Blanc de Blancs blends Chardonnay and Aligoté. The grapes are sourced from three different areas spanning the length of the Burgundy region: the Mâconnais in the South, which lends richness to the blend, and the Châtillonnais and the Yonne to the North, which lend a crisp vivacity to the wine. Soils are limestone based, endowing the wine with great freshness, elegance and minerality.
