Tasting notes

Deep gold with faint copper reflections and a fine bead. A powerful, vinous nose of red apple, wild strawberry, dried fig, hazelnut and smoky chalk. The palate is full and structured, with the depth of Aÿ Pinot Noir, the razor-sharp acidity of 2008 and a very long, savoury, mineral finish.

About this wine

Vauzelle Terme is the smallest of the single plots from which Jacquesson, the Champagne house of Dizy, produces a single-vineyard Champagne: just 30 ares of Pinot Noir in Aÿ, about 2,500 vines planted in 1980.

The vineyard sits in the middle of a steep south-facing slope with a 17% gradient, on highly calcareous alluvial deposits over blocks of Campanian chalk, and is trained on the Cordon de Royat system. Only the first pressing is used, and the wine is vinified in oak.

A blanc de noirs from one year and one parcel, made in very limited quantities, it expresses the full depth and character of Pinot Noir from Aÿ in the great 2008 vintage.
