Lot presentation
La Croisette Leclerc Briant 2015
The wine
Grown biodynamically at the heart of the Marne valley, this undosed Chardonnay was matured in vats. This confers a lively, energetic and delicate profile. Its fine bubbles bring out particularly fruity and minty aromas. Its tense, full palate calls for pairings with light, seafood dishes.
About the Producer Leclerc-Briant
Created by the Leclerc family, the house was owned by Pascal Leclerc-Briant until his death in 2010. Thanks to him, the estate acted as a precursor in the Champagne region for organic and biodynamic viticulture. Before his death, an American couple of Francophile made sure that his work would not go to waste: they employed two talented winemakers: Hervé Jestin and Frédéric Zeimett. Thanks to their work, the wines have improved immeasurably; they are meticulously vinified, almost natural wines. A rising star.
