original release. 72% 2007, disgorged in April 2021 with 3.5 g/l dosage. 47% Chardonnay, 33% Pinot noir, 20% Pinot Meunier. Beautifully aging, great citrus on the edges of the tongue underlying toffee, baked green apple, and some other notes of the bottle age. First 735, happy to have it at this age.

Everything you want from an aged champagne. Looked so young and fresh in the glass. Lovely roundness depth of flavour but with a fresh backbone and just got better and better. Honey, brioche and xmas spices. Just superb. Everyone was enthralled. A good outcome from what was meant to have been a difficult year.

Jacquesson 728-741 tasting. 72% 2007, 28% reserve. 47% Chard, 33% PN, 20% PM. Disg Feb 2012, 3.5 g/l dosage. Similar blends to 734 and 733, but much less time in bttl than those wines. The least complex wine of the flight, and likely a bit past prime. More lemon than golden apple. Just didn't stand out by comparison. Ok acidity, and a touch flat on the finish.

2007 vintage as base and about 30% of reserve wines added. One of the older bottlings and disgorged January 2012, so it has spent quite some time in the bottle.
Ripe apple from the age, some white flowers, citrus and a bit of yeast/bread. Pineapple/passionfruit on the nose too. Some rock-y notes as well. Slightly warm feeling. Going downhill from here so drink up!
