This Blanc de Blanc Brut Nature comes from the Premier Cru Trepail region. This product is made from 100% Chardonnay and is not produced under a natural label. It is Rendzina compost, it is possible to use only the limestone substrate, but it does not have the same quality of stoniness, deriving from the still unaltered limestone rock. The chalky part is not missing. The ownership of the vineyard has always been in the hands of the family. The day and the vineyard were born 50 years ago.
Laurianne Lejour - Epernay
Laurianne Lejour is a young producer who has been active for a few years on a tiny 1.5 hectare vineyard estate divided into 4 micro-plots in grand cru classification between the Montagne de Reims and the Côte de Blancs in the municipalities of Ambonnay, Bouzy and Louvois. Each single vineyard is individually vinified in the small owned cellar in Reims using used oak flûtes. Blends for 20% of the total made up of vins de reserve, and no use of malolactic fermentation. Already at the beginning, Laurianne offers us wines of broad floral expressiveness and seductive perlage, characterized by a marked territorial identity and marked minerality. A talent to follow carefully who will offer us surprising champagnes over the years and who has already at the beginning interpreted a style recognizable for its elegance and clear territorial transposition, as recently attested by the award obtained already at the second harvest as "Jeune Talent de Champagne".
