Champagne Extra-Brut, Leclerc Briant "Le Reserve"

About the Champagne Leclerc Briant Réserve Extra Brut is an elegant and wonderfully expressive Champagne, made from a blend of 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Pinot Meunier and 20% Chardonnay. Brilliant straw yellow in the glass, it opens with fresh green apple, lemon and delicate almond notes. The palate is beautifully complex, revealing blackcurrant, peach, blood orange and fresh grapes, with intriguing hints of aniseed and juniper. A creamy mid-palate brings generosity and balance, leading to a delightfully long, fresh finish. Its combination of fruit, freshness and subtle complexity makes this a particularly lovely Champagne to enjoy with fine cheese. About the Champagne House Founded in Épernay in 1872, Leclerc Briant is one of Champagne’s pioneering houses, embracing organic and biodynamic viticulture long before it became fashionable. Today, the house is celebrated for Champagnes with remarkable energy, precision and individuality, produced predominantly from Premier Cru vineyards. Leclerc Briant is also known for its curiosity and willingness to explore unconventional approaches to winemaking. Perhaps its most extraordinary creation is Cuvée Abyss, a Champagne matured beneath the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Brittany. This combination of deep respect for the vineyard, biodynamic principles and a wonderfully adventurous spirit makes Leclerc Briant one of the most distinctive Champagne houses of our time. Serve with creamy cheeses like Delice de Cremiers and La Tur, or firm mountain cheeses like Comte, Gruyere Reserve and Appenzeller. 750ml
