2015 Château d'Avize Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature Leclerc-Briant Champagne

The 2015 Château d’Avize Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature from Leclerc-Briant is a pure expression of Chardonnay from one of the Champagne’s most revered white-cru terroirs. Made without dosage, it delivers exceptional precision, chalk-driven tension, and a distinctly gastronomic style that reflects Leclerc-Briant’s pioneering biodynamic philosophy.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shines a clear gold with a refined, persistent mousse. The nose opens with citrus zest, white peach, toasted almond, brioche, and a cool chalky note that speaks directly of Avize’s terroir. On the palate, the wine is taut and focused, combining vivid acidity with a creamy texture and a pronounced saline-mineral finish. The 2015 vintage brings a touch of ripe fruit depth alongside structure and balance, giving it excellent aging potential over the next several years, with further complexity likely to emerge in bottle.

Production
This single-vineyard Blanc de Blancs is made entirely from Chardonnay grown in Avize on the Côte des Blancs, where deep chalk soils provide the lift, salinity, and linearity that define the wine. The grapes were harvested by hand and gently pressed; part of the vinification took place in oak barrels to add texture and structure before the wine spent several years aging on the lees. Bottled as Brut Nature, it was released without dosage to preserve the clarity of the site and vintage.

Food & Serving
A superb match for oysters, sashimi, crudo, and other delicate seafood dishes, this Champagne also works beautifully with roast poultry in a light cream sauce or aged Comté. Serve chilled at 8–10°C, and decanting is generally unnecessary, though a short pause in the glass can help it раскры? Wait no. remove. Decanting is not recommended unless the wine is showing particularly tightly on opening.
