Only the best sites are used for the André Jacquart label. In the cellar a high proportion of used barrels from Burgundy are combined with very long lees aging to produce an outstanding effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe versatile range of André Jacquart champagnes represents some of the finest from the Côte de Blancs today. Rich yet fine and elegant; powerful yet precise. They are the perfect blend of pure Chardonnay fruit, Côte de Blancs chalky minerality, long lees aging, oak and secondary complexity. They are delicious now but are endowed with the depth and structure to live a long time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e"}
