Why shop with us?
Valentin Leflaive’s Grand Cru Avize Extra Brut showcases Chardonnay from one of the Côte des Blancs’ most celebrated villages. Its Extra Brut style and Grand Cru origin make it a compelling choice for drinkers seeking Champagne with a crisp, focused profile and the depth associated with Avize.
Tasting Notes
Expect a pale, bright appearance, with aromas and flavours typical of Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs: citrus, orchard fruit and a refined mineral character. The Extra Brut designation indicates a dry style, while the wine is described as combining complexity and fullness. No specific tasting notes or aging guidance are provided.
Production
The grapes are identified as Chardonnay from Grand Cru vineyards in Avize, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs. The area is renowned for its chalk-rich soils, which are often associated with freshness and mineral character in Champagne. Details of harvesting, fermentation and maturation are not available.
Food & Serving
Serve well chilled, around 8–10°C, alongside oysters, shellfish, sushi or delicate white fish; its dry style also suits salty aperitifs and aged hard cheeses. A decant is generally unnecessary for Champagne, though a brief rest in the glass can help the wine open.
