Monday, February 25, 2013 - Champagne Jacquesson with Jean-Hervé Chiquet (Stockholm): Appearance: bright yellow
Nose: ripe pears, some wild strawberries, red and yellow apples, some perfume notes, honey, mineral, slightly toasted notes.
Palate: dry, very mineral, citrus, grapefruit bitterness, green and some yellow apple.
Tasted alongside the 735 just before the general release of the 736, the nose gives me a more Pinot Noir-like impression than the 735, but the 736 is actually a little more Chardonnay dominated, and I found the 736 a little more flowery. The palate is more mineral than the 735, with more stony and “fizzy tablet”-influenced minerality. It also shows more citrus and less apple notes. The 736 comes across as younger and needs more time, but definitely has potential to develop and will definitely peak higher. 88+ p.
