The Toledo "Statue of Liberty" - named in 1949 after Armand Goutorbe, who saved countless numbers of US GI's as a French Intelligence Officer is WWII, was gifted a Willy's Jeep by the same GI's who were the recipients of his heroism. Armand became affectionately known in Champagne, France as the "JEEPER" man due to his inseparable and necessary relationship with our famed vehicle, which allowed him to tend to his vines when his war injuries prevented him from walking. In homage to the history, his relationship with the vehicle and his endearing nickname, Armand renamed his vineyard Champagne Jeeper in 1949. Fast forward to modern day Champagne and Nicolas Dubois and Michel Reybier "https://www.michelreybier.com/en/" joined forces to create this best-in-class, hyper-luxury champagne! This audacious new beginning, now with five cuvees, has launched Jeeper straight to the top of the exclusive and long established world of champagne. 60% Chardonnay, 25% Pinot Noir and 15% Pinot Meunier, 92 rated and a multitude of international awards. Stone fruit aromas, with light toasted notes. Great persistence and a lingering exotic fruit note. A creamy texture with fine, lively bubbles. As a blend of 37 parcels, this offers the perfect expression of the three varieties used in Champagne. This is a champagne made for pleasure and excellence. It is the perfect aperitif. A refined and extremely forgiving champagne - a favorite of the occasional champagne.
