MOSAIQUE MILLÉSIMÉ BRUT CHAMPAGNE 2008 AC, France |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
JACQUART |
A REPEAT of the 2008 that was released on May 1, 2021 at $74.95 now with 199 cases of 6. Unfortunately, for the second time in a row, the LCBO tasting note is incorrect - this 2008 was aged 11 years (not 6) sur lees. It has a light yellow colour with good effervescence. The mature nose is intense and complex with baked apple-lemon fruit along with some toasty brioche notes. Dry, medium-full bodied, maturing, ripe lemon-apple meringue flavours with a long, mouthfilling, fairly high acid, toasty, finish. Great with food, this 50-50 blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir has 12% alcohol, 8 g/L residual sugar and 7 g/L total acidity with lot number L7J084B803921on the capsule. Drink now, it's a best buy if you enjoy this style. |

TASTING NOTE: Jacquart Mosaique Millesime 2008 Brut Champagne is produced from equal amounts of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and aged on its lees for six years! Beautifully balanced and toasty with layers of ripe apple, hazelnut, almond, mineral and zesty citrus flavours on a vibrant mousse. Rich, elegant and great now.
