September Bubbly Club: Iowa

Bubbly Wine ClubJCB_21_120x450JCB by Jean-Charles Boisset
Nº21
Crémant de Bourgogne
Burgundy, France

BUBBLY WINE STYLE

While effortless to enjoy, the Nº21 Brut is nonetheless a bit mysterious, crisp and bracing; it also has the tiniest bit of luminous creaminess. The nose is fresh and fruity with almond and white flower aromas. The palate has a full and generous mouth with a lovely harmony between freshness and fruit.

WINEMAKING: Traditional Method following specification of the Crémant de Bourgogne AOC. Aged for a minimum of 12 months on slats.
AWARDS: Silver | Glass of Bubbly Awards 2017

WHAT THE NUMBER 21 SIGNIFIES:
Jean-Charles’ philosophy of wine has been profoundly shaped by the wine region where he was born and raised: Burgundy’s famous Côte d’Or, which translates to the Gold Coast. N°21 honors this connection and heritage, for 21 is the French government’s “department” number for the Côte d’Or wine region.

ABOUT THE WINERY:
Jean-Charles Boisset was born into the world of wine in the village of Vougeot, Burgundy, France. His lifelong passion for wine began as a child, as he grew up above the cellars and within view of the centuries-old vineyards of Château du Clos de Vougeot, the epicenter and birthplace of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

His parents, Jean-Claude and Claudine, founded the family winery in 1961 with an innovative and entrepreneurial spirit in one of the most traditional wine growing regions in the world.  Today, the family collection includes wineries that share more than 20 centuries of combined winemaking heritage and tradition in some of the world’s most prestigious terroirs, from Burgundy to the South of France, to California’s Napa Valley and Russian River Valley.

March Bubbly Club Iowa

Bubbly Wine ClubJCB-Number69-bottleJCB by Jean-Charles Boisset
No. 69 Rosé
Burgundy, France

BUBBLY WINE STYLE

Jean-Charles was born in 1969, the year that mankind went to the moon. As such, 69 represents unlimited expression, freedom, creativity, intellectual revolution, artistry, and refinement. Of course, 69 is also a Rosé Brut based exclusively on Pinot Noir; a Rosé that entwines masculinity and femininity.

For Jean-Charles Boisset, No 69 Sparkling Rosé is not a dainty pink drink. It’s a flamboyant, profound mouthful of serious bubbles. The vibrant crispness of No 69 is thirst quenching, yet the flavors are evocative of Pinot Noir and are beautifully sensual.
