Jacques Lassaigne Champagne BdB Extra Brut Les Vignes de Montgueux NV
The Jacques Lassaigne Champagne Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut ‘Les Vignes de Montgueux’ NV is a vibrant expression of 100% Chardonnay, showcasing the unique terroir of Montgueux, often referred to as the “Montrachet of Champagne.” Crafted by the Lassaigne family, this cuvée is a blend of grapes from 7 to 9 distinct parcels and three successive vintages. Vinified with minimal intervention, the wine undergoes extended lees aging to develop complexity and is bottled with minimal dosage, resulting in an Extra Brut style that emphasizes freshness and precision.
On the nose, this Champagne opens with lively aromas of green apples, white peach, and freshly baked bread, accented by notes of pastry cream and subtle chalky minerality. The palate is taut and racy, offering vibrant acidity and flavors of citrus and orchard fruits, leading to a long, chalky finish that underscores its purity and finesse.
This Champagne pairs beautifully with oysters, seared scallops, or sushi, where its minerality and crisp acidity elevate the flavors of the dish. It also makes a sophisticated aperitif, setting the tone for any refined occasion. While already approachable for its freshness and energy, the Jacques Lassaigne ‘Les Vignes de Montgueux’ NV will reward careful cellaring over the next 2–3 years, unveiling even greater nuance and complexity. It is a testament to the Lassaigne family’s mastery of terroir-driven Champagne.
