2017 Jacques Lassaigne, Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature Millesimes, Champagne, France Cakebread Aging: 12 months in usedWhile some champagne houses release a vintage cuve only when conditions are what they deem best, Emmanuel makes a vintage cuve every single year, to display the variation each year brings to the wines. He says the results often surprise even him, certain vintages he thought the wine was lackluster, but when he revisits that wine several years down the road he discovers the wine just needed time to come into its own and is in fact one of his favorites.
