Jacquesson Dizy Terres Rouges 1x2012 + 5x2013

Dizy Terres Rouges is a single plot expression from the chalk and iron rich soils of Dizy, where Pinot grapes develop concentration and character. This cuvée combines power and finesse: a terroir driven Champagne that is both immediately enjoyable and perfectly suited to gastronomy.

In the glass it shows a pale golden hue with fine, persistent bubbles. The nose opens with ripe stone fruit, red apple and subtle floral accents, followed by delicate brioche and nutty notes. On the palate it is full in texture yet taut in structure; the fresh acidity provides energy, while a mineral undertone and a long, elegant finish keep everything in balance.

Vinification is focused on preserving the identity of the parcel: gentle pressing, controlled fermentation and extended ageing on lees to build complexity and mouthfeel without masking the terroir. Blending and dosage are carefully calibrated to retain both the strength and finesse of Terres Rouges.

Ideal serving temperature: 9–11 °C. Food pairings: rich fish dishes, poultry with creamy sauces, truffle preparations and aged cheeses.
