2017 Jacques Lassaigne, Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature Millesimes, Champagne, France Oenos Mittas for 25 daysWhile some champagne houses release a vintage cuve only when conditions are what they deem best, Emmanuel makes a vintage cuve every single year, to display the variation each year brings to the wines.
