Aromatic profile

The structure of this champagne

Four dimensions to capture its balance

The pure chalk of Trépail lends a razor-sharp acidity and a remarkable mineral vivacity.
Roundness
Eleven months ageing in old oak barrels wraps the wine in a generous, silky texture.

TASTING NOTES

A luminous golden robe with bubbles of exceptional finesse. The nose is open and complex: candied citrus, dried flowers, a chalky note and a discreet toasty echo from the oak ageing, perfectly integrated. The palate is taut and textured, carried by ripe fruit (white peach, candied lemon), a precisely chiselled minerality and a saline finish of outstanding length.

Terroirs

Sourced from the 'Pierre Saint Martin' plot in Trépail, Premier Cru of the Grande Montagne de Reims, on soils of exceptionally fine pure chalk. Vinified in old oak barrels (11 months), aged 4 years on lees, unfiltered and unfined, under certified biodynamic farming.

David Léclapart

About this house

David Léclapart settled in Trépail in 1997, taking over 3 family hectares which he immediately converted to biodynamics — a bold move at the time. He tends his vines according to a strict lunar calendar, without herbicides or pesticides, with light ploughing to respect the life of the soils.

In the cellar, the philosophy is the same: spontaneous fermentations, no additions, zero filtration, sulphites kept to a bare minimum. His small-production cuvées — L'Apôtre, L'Amateur, L'Aphrodisiaque — have become world references for lovers of authentic grower Champagnes.

Food pairing

The perfect pairing

Between the champagne and its dish
Aperitif

Aperitif

The crisp acidity and Brut Nature minerality marry beautifully with the briny, iodine salinity of a freshly opened rock oyster.

Starter

Starter

The finesse of the dominant Chardonnay engages elegantly with the delicacy of a sea bass carpaccio, lifting its marine aromas without overpowering them.

Main course

Main course

The aromatic depth of the barrel ageing and the wine's earthy undertones find a natural harmony with the morels in a creamy risotto.
