Aromatic profile

The structure of this champagne

Four dimensions to capture its balance
Freshness
Razor-sharp acidity, the hallmark of a Montagne de Reims Chardonnay with no dosage.
Roundness
A silky texture born of extended lees ageing, counterbalanced by mineral tension.
Power
A confident aromatic presence ranging from fresh chalk and candied citrus to toasted hazelnut.
Length
A saline, lingering finish, characteristic of Berru's chalky terroirs.

TASTING NOTES

Golden robe with silver highlights, fine and persistent bead. Delicate, mineral nose: lemon zest, fresh chalk, white peach and a hint of toasted hazelnut revealed by the extended lees ageing. Lively and silky on the palate, underpinned by a persistent chalky minerality and a finish of fine saline length.

Terroirs

The Les Bénis plot rests on the chalky clay-limestone soils of Berru, on the slopes of the Montagne de Reims. Here, the Chardonnay develops a vertical minerality and a citrus tension that express themselves fully without the filter of dosage.

Picard

About this house

Champagne Jacques Picard is a family domaine established in Berru on the Montagne de Reims, passed down through four generations since Roger Picard planted his first vines in the late 1950s. The vineyard spans three crus — Berru, Montbré and Avenay-Val-d'Or (the latter two classified as premier cru) — and has held organic certification since 2022.

The house vinifies each plot separately, in stainless steel vats or barrel, to reveal the singular expression of each terroir. The single-parcel cuvées, made without added sulphites and aged on the lees for an extended period, embody the family's commitment to champagne that is transparent, precise and true to its soil.

The saline minerality and fine bubbles of this brut nature beautifully complement the golden lightness of Comté gougères.

The citrus tension and purity of the Chardonnay pair exquisitely with sea bass carpaccio lifted by a touch of pepper.

The mineral vivacity of this zero-dosage champagne pairs elegantly with the gentle vegetal sweetness of a green asparagus risotto.
