Champagne Leclerc Briant Brut Réserve
WineSpark Price €43.44
This wine sold out just before Christmas - more is on the way, arriving early 2023! In the meantime, try our Champagne Leclerc Briant Millésime 2015.
The label might say Brut but this is no ordinary Brut. It’s Leclerc Briant’s signature wine, their calling card, so it has to be brilliant and perfect every single year.
It’s the classic Brut blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. But the similarities stop there…
- It’s made from 100% organic grapes from one vintage - 2017 - rather than a blend of loads of stuff
- It ages in tanks and barrels until the July following harvest (most producers bottle much earlier - in February to March - to rush their wine out to market)
- And when it’s in bottle, it ages on its lees for 30 months (most producers age for just 15 months)
- Finally it’s bottled unfiltered and unfined, so you keep as much texture and mouthfeel as possible, with the tiniest most elegant bubbles
You end up with an energetic, vibrant Champagne that is rich and refreshing at the same time.
Not only is this wine organic, but the whole package is completely sustainable. The bottle is made from recycled glass, the label is cotton instead of paper, and the foil is made from recycled tin and aluminum.
This is amazing quality and provenance for the price, and that’s exactly what being part of WineSpark is all about.
