Jarry Héritage

Essentielle 75cl

Pale gold in the glass with green highlights, crystal-clear and lively. The nose opens on candied citrus, gentle spices and a fresh iodine note characteristic of the Sézannais chalk. The palate is taut and precise, with a salivating minerality that draws the finish out across almond and lemon zest.

Aromatic profile

The structure of this champagne

Four dimensions to capture its balance
Freshness
The extra-brut style and pure Chardonnay from Bethon deliver a lively, saline acidity as the guiding thread.
Roundness
A delicate texture brings generosity without ever weighing the whole down.
Power
A finely chiselled cuvée leaning more towards precision and minerality than breadth.
Length
The iodine-tinged, spiced finish leaves a persistent and memorable impression.

Terroirs

The finest Chardonnay plots of Bethon, at the heart of the Sézannais — a chalky terroir with a sunny, iodine-tinged character — are rigorously selected to shape the identity of this emblematic cuvée.

Jarry Héritage

About this house

Jarry Héritage is the project of Johan Jarry, an oenologist trained at Mumm and later at La Goutte d'Or, who took over the family estate established in Bethon for three generations. The house is committed to sustainable viticulture in Champagne and works vines across three distinct terroirs.

Johan Jarry's philosophy is that of a precision craftsman: each cuvée results from a rigorous plot-by-plot selection, vinified with an oenologist's eye and a deep attachment to the identity of Bethon. The range is divided between terroir blancs de blancs and blends of the three Champenois grape varieties.

The perfect pairing

Between the champagne and its dish
Aperitif

Aperitif

Its fine bubbles and saline extra-brut character are a natural match for comté gougères at the start of a meal.

Starter

The citrus notes and iodine of the Bethon Chardonnay echo the fresh herbs and citrus of a salmon gravlax.

The chalky minerality of the Essentielle comes into its own in perfect harmony with the green asparagus of a risotto.
