James Suckling: 96 Points
A structured and creamy-textured Jacquesson NV with a very fine-bubble texture and lovely polish. It's medium- to full-bodied with length and sophistication in a friendly and approachable way. Yet there is something that tells you it's going to deliver more with aging. More pinot in the blend than in other years because the chardonnay was affected by frost and it is impressive. Chewy at the end with phenolic tension and a slight bitterness though in a good way. 2019 base. Three years on the yeast. Dosage 1.5g/L. Drink or hold.
Vinous: 93 Points
The NV Extra-Brut Cuvée No. 747 (2019 base) marries textural richness with notable vibrancy. Lemon confit mint white pepper tangerine peel and graphite lend energy throughout. All the elements are very nicely balanced. I especially admire the textural depth here. Spring frost was particularly damaging to the Chardonnay so the blend is distinctly Pinot-leaning in this release. Dosage is 1.5 grams per liter. Disgorged: October 2023.
