Jan. 2025","description":"\u003cp\u003eChampagne Mouzon Leroux L'Atavique Tradition is a biodynamic grower Champagne drawn entirely from the grand cru of Verzy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVerzy sits on the northern flank of the Montagne de Reims, a cool, wooded grand cru whose chalk carries a good deal of flint. Sébastien Mouzon farms here biodynamically and L'Atavique — the word means atavism, a nod to the memory of his forebears' work in the vineyards — is his house style in a bottle, assembled from multiple plots across the village. The blend is 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, with the base vintage topped up by 45% reserve wine from the two preceding years. Fermentation is 80% in French oak and 20% in stainless steel, each plot vinified separately, and all lots complete malolactic conversion; Mouzon argues that flint in the soils and biodynamic farming supply freshness without the need to retain malic acid. The wine spent 36 months on lees and was disgorged with 1.5 g\/L dosage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrink now or hold for several years; serve at about 8°C with oysters, roast poultry or aged comté.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
