La Croisette
La Croisette from Leclerc Briant is an organically grown Chardonnay made from the harvest of a single year. The grapes come from a plot in Cumières, chosen for its soil, its vines and the exceptional quality of the fruit, and it gave the cuvée its name. It is vinified and aged in barrel, with no dosage. The wine brings the freshness of the vintage and crisp fruit, yet feels fleshy and full. The finish is lightly chalky, saline and marked by mineral bitterness. A rare cuvée.
Its precision calls for spicy, inventive cooking. Gillardeau oysters, gravlax or half-cooked scallops with lemon crumbs and tarragon espuma work very well. Drink it at 9 to 11 °C from a wide white wine glass.
