Gault&Millau's review 2026

The nose reveals aromas of cocoa, caramel, citrus and spices, while a floral and fruity bouquet (peony, mirabelle plum, tangerine) mingles with notes of vanilla and grated coconut. On the palate, the balance is generous, with structuring tannins. The finish reveals the woody imprint of ageing, bringing a slight bitterness that suggests a little more cellar rest would be beneficial.

Discover the winery

Jacques Picard
Jacques Picard
Northeast of Reims, the village of Berru in the Montagne de Reims is home to Jacques Picard Champagne, which rightfully bears the title of “artisan winemaker,” carried on by Fiona and Corinne. Their vineyards are historically located in Berru—renowned for its Chardonnay—in Avenay-Val-d’Or, a Pinot Noir Premier Cru not far from Épernay, and in Montbré, deep in the Montagne de Reims, where the various plots are planted with Pinot Noir and Meunier. The house’s style? Cuvées dominated by Chardonnay, as well as single-vineyard wines, complemented by white Coteaux Champenois and Ratafia.
