Champagne Leclerc Briant Millésime Extra Brut 2018

Champagne Leclerc Briant Millésime Extra Brut is a vintage Champagne blended from Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Meunier and finished with almost no dosage.

Extra Brut is a legal category rather than a house flourish: it caps residual sugar at six grams per litre, well below the level most Brut Champagne carries, which leaves a wine nowhere to hide. That suits Leclerc Briant, a house founded in 1872 and among the earliest in the region to convert to organic and then biodynamic farming, both of which it holds certification for. The blend draws on all three Champagne varieties from vineyards in the Marne, fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged at length on lees in the Épernay cellars. Being a vintage wine, it comes from a single declared harvest rather than a blend of years.

Serve at around 10 degrees in a white wine glass, with roast poultry, veal, or richer seafood such as lobster and scallops.
