Description
A smooth and refined Blanc de Blancs Brut champagne
The producer
Founded in 1949, the Jeeper Champagne House takes its name from the vehicle, the Willys Jeep, that the creator of the estate used to drive around his vineyard.
Acquired in 2009 by Nicolas Dubois, a self-taught wine enthusiast, Jeeper joined forces in 2013 with Michel Reybier, owner of Château Cos d’Estournel (Saint-Estèphe) and with former basketball player Tony Parker from 2002.
The vineyard
Jeeper reigns over a vineyard of round 50 hectares that spread over the illustrious terroirs of Champagne, namely the Montagne de Reims, the Côte des Blancs and the Marne Valley.
The wine
Bright golden yellow robe. On the nose, ageing in oak barrels brings subtle notes of roasted hazelnut and fresh brioche. The expression on the palate is intense, fruity and floral. With hints of lemon zest and candied citrus. A beautiful acidity that gives length in the mouth.
Chardonnay 98% – Pinot Noir 2% – 50% oak barrel ageing Dosage: Brut, 6 g/l
