12%
0.75L
Intensity
This rosé de saignée is a flavourful, vinous and deep-coloured Champagne.
More infoSolely made from Pinot Noir, the grapes that go on to make this Extra Brut Rosé de Saignée are macerated for two days which gives the wine this cherry pink colour. The vines are certificated organic and biodynamic. The dosage amounts to about 4 grams of sugar per litre (extra-brut). Disgorgement takes place after about 7 or 8 years in the cellar.
Brought to life by fine, light bubbles, this fresh and concentrated Champagne contains delicately rich fruits. On the nose, you’ll find notes of red fruits as all as blackcurrant, wild strawberries and Morello cherry. On the palate, this wine is creamy and smooth. This Champagne full of character will pair brilliantly with your summer dishes such as fresh salmon or a scallop casserole. Serve at 10-12°C, either when young or after a few years in the cellar.

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.
