Champagne Leclerc Briant ‘Les Basses Prières Millésime’ 2017 mantellassi with mineral and violet floralThe champagne has a luminous and fluid robe, with a pale yellow gold color and greenish yellow reflections in the glass. The first nose evokes the delicacy of a fine and wet chalk, enhanced by notes of Carensac licorice, elderberry, lemon and apple. The vinification and ageing in oak barrels offers a fruity fullness with chewiness and a feeling of juiciness.
