Leclerc Briant Champagne Les Basses Prieres Les Hautvillers 2014

Les Basses Prières shows notes brioche and honeysuckle with cherry, blackcurrant and plum adding a hint of fruitiness. Letting the wine breathe a while releases notes of peppermint, sweet spices and white flowers. The palate shows chalky minerality with salinity and finesse on the finish.

Gastronomic Champagne is the goal of Leclerc Briant and all their wines are intended to accompany fine cuisine. Seafood with a saline character such as grilled prawns or langoustines drizzled with oil and sea salt or broiled sardines with lemon and parsley work well with this wine.
