Champagne David Leclapart

The fruit for this Wine has previously gone into a rosé called L’Alchimiste. Léclapart decided, in 2011, to make a Blanc de Noir style instead, as the fruit was not prefect for maceration. It is likely that in the future the rosé will once again return in certain vintages, but for now he is thrilled with the result. The fruit is from old vines, planted in the 50’s and 60’s and entirely vinified in secondhand barriques. Crushed roses and oyster shell, with gently spicy strawberries and wild cherries. The palate has a supple and fleshy texture that winds out to a powerful, dry and intense, minerally focus on the finish.
