味覺：不甜，高酸性，中酒精濃度與中酒體。有濃郁的檸檬，青梅，礦物，菇類，餅乾，核桃與鮮美口味，長餘韻。

結論：Jacquesson 是香檳瓶塞固定鐵絲的發明者，也是當年拿破崙最喜愛的香檳酒莊之一。這瓶於12年８月才除渣的非年份香檳儘管含糖量甚低（僅充填1.5g/l的dosage），卻不失其傑出的優雅品質。以可適飲，亦可短時間儲存。

WSET Level 4 Wine Tasting Week 7

Top pick of the week

JACQUESSON Extra Brut Champagne Cuvée nº 736 NV

Tasted on 2014-01-22 at WSET Level 4 Class (CAD $65)
WS 91 / RP 90-92

Appearance: Clear, medium gold

Nose: Clean, pronounced lemon, toasted apple, strawberry, biscuit, mushroom and walnut aromas at developing stage

Palate:  Dry, high acidity, medium alcohol and medium-bodied. With pronounced lemon, unripe plum, mineral, mushroom, biscuit, walnut and savory flavors. Long finish.

Conclusion: Jacquesson & Fils was famous for the inventor of muselet and the most favorite champagne by Napoleon.  This Aug 2012 disgorged NV has outstanding elegance even though it is very dry (1.5g/l dosage).  Drink now and will benefit for short-term ageing.
