The Baron Jacques Blanc de Blancs NV is an elegant organic sparkling wine from Burgundy, France, crafted in the traditional method from 100% Chardonnay. Matured on lees for a minimum of nine months, it offers impressive complexity while retaining a fresh, vibrant style. The nose is bright and inviting, revealing white peach, lemon zest and delicate floral aromas, complemented by hints of brioche, fresh butter and subtle chalky minerality.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with a fine, persistent mousse and lively acidity. Crisp citrus and orchard fruit are balanced by gentle autolytic notes of baked bread and brioche, leading to a clean, refreshing finish with excellent balance and finesse. Fresh, approachable and exceptional value, it is a versatile sparkling wine suited to both celebrations and everyday enjoyment.
Ben’s Recommendation:
The Baron Jacques Blanc de Blancs NV is a superb aperitif and pairs beautifully with freshly shucked oysters, grilled prawns, smoked salmon, sushi, soft cheeses or light canapés. Serve well chilled at 6–8°C and enjoy now through 2028 while its vibrant fruit, fine mousse and freshness are at their best.
