Jacquesson Avize "Champ Caïn" 2008

100% Chardonnay

Situated at the bottom of the slope facing due south; calcareous soil of clayey, sandy, silty structure over blocks of Campagnian chalk.

Planted to Chardonnay with 12,000 vines over 1.3 hectares in 1962. Chablis pruning.

2008 was a year characteristic of our northern clime: spring was cool and rainy, summer dry and windy, as was September.

Proof that Champagne can produce a great vintage despite a cool growing season!
