Mouzon Leroux Champagne L'Atavique Grand Cru Tradition Extra Brut

Mouzon Leroux Champagne L'Atavique Grand Cru Tradition Extra Brut is a refined Grand Cru Champagne that balances precision, depth, and vibrant energy. Made from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, it offers a stylish expression of the house’s terroir-driven approach, with a low dosage that lets the wine’s character shine through.

Tasting Notes
Pale gold in the glass with a fine, persistent mousse, it opens with fresh citrus, green apple, white flowers, and subtle brioche notes. With air, more layered nuances emerge—chalk, almond, and a gentle smoky complexity that adds sophistication. On the palate, it is elegant and complex, combining a crisp mineral backbone with tense acidity and a finely textured, dry finish. The Extra Brut style gives it clarity and purity, while the Grand Cru fruit lends concentration and finesse. It has the structure to develop further over time, though it is already highly enjoyable now.

Production
Sourced from Grand Cru vineyards in Champagne, the wine reflects the region’s chalk-rich soils and cool climate, which help preserve freshness and aromatic precision. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are harvested by hand and vinified with a focus on expressing site character rather than overt winemaking influence, resulting in a Champagne that feels authentic and terroir-led.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled at 8–10°C. It works beautifully as an aperitif and is an excellent choice at the start of a meal, especially with white meat such as veal, chicken, or turkey. It also pairs well with delicate seafood, light canapés, and refined mushroom dishes; decanting is not necessary.
