Extra-Brut 2016
The Extra Brut Millésime 2016 from Leclerc Briant comes from organic farming and shows how much expression a single vintage can develop with little dosage. In the glass fine, lively bubbles rise, carrying a delicate mousse. On the palate it comes across as elegant and fresh, yet with concentration and a certain vinosity. Juicy, fleshy and marked by fruity precision, it is a champagne with substance.
At table it is pleasingly versatile. Try it with foie gras terrine, red mullet cooked on one side only, or beef tataki. Pineapple roasted in honey is also a charming partner. Serve it at 8 to 10 °C in a wide white wine glass, in which fruit and structure unfold nicely.
