The Leflaive family, famously present for generations on the most prestigious appellations of the Côte d’Or, is recognized for its exemplary work. Continuing the historical single varietal approach, this Champagne is made from 100% Chardonnay from the Avize Grand Cru in the Côte des Blancs.
The selections are parcel-based, the harvests are manual and the production is made-to-measure. Aged 3.5 years on lees, and recently disgorged, it exhibits a pale gold hue. It is prized for its very delicate flavours and long mineral finish.
This Champagne reveals a complex nose where orange zest and white flowers harmoniously intertwine. Its palate is fresh and nuanced with lemon citrus, tart apples, and chalky notes. Presented for discerning palates, it both characterizes and magnifies the Grand Cru d’Avize terroir. Serve with Sole Meunière, or seared scallops with lemon.
“This is an expressive and flavorful blanc de blancs showing aromas of honey, salted pineapples, baked apples and pastries. Creamy and fresh, with a medium body, very fine bubbles and bright acidity. Excellent persistency. 100% chardonnay from Avize. Disgorged February 2023. 4g/L dosage. Drink now.”
93 points, James Suckling, August 2023
