Leclerc Briant was an early adopter of organic practices beginning in the 1960’s and pioneered the concept of single-vineyard Champagne beginning in the 1970’s. Fifth generation vigneron, Pascal Leclerc began following biodynamic principles in 1988. Today, enologist Hervé Jestin continues the legacy of this visionary house.
Brut Réserve is produced from 42% Pinot Noir; 25% Pinot Meunier; 33% Chardonnay. Malolactic fermentation is allowed to happen naturally and sulfite levels are kept low.
There are lots of brioche and almond flavours, with a lemony citrus hit and a herbaceous note of the long, lingering and dry finish.
