Champagner Labruyère - jetzt entdecken bei Champagne Characters!

Im Jahr 1873 wurde Verzenay in einer inoffiziellen Rangliste unter die Top 3 Crus der Champagne eingestuft. Aus diesem Grund wählte die Familie Labruyère, die auch im Besitz der weltberühmten Domaine Jacques Prieur ist, das Dorf Verzenay in der Montagne de Reims, um in der Champagne ein eigenes Weingut zu gründen.

Als "Récoltant-Manipulant" hat sich die Familie Labruyère sehr schnell für eine nachhaltige und terroirgeprägte Landwirtschaft entschieden, ein wichtiger Grundpfeiler in den Werten der Familie.

Das Terroir von Verzenay besteht aus einem lehmig-kalkigem Untergrund, kombiniert mit einer Nordausrichtung seiner Hanglagen. Diese Kombination macht es zu einem einzigartigen Terroir, das den Weinen ihre einzigartige Typizität verleiht.

Die 6,6 ha des Weingutes sind mit 71% Pinot Noir und 29% Chardonnay bestockt. Der Pinot Noir bringt in Verbindung mit dem Terroir Komplexität, Struktur und Intensität in die Weine, während der Chardonnay eine Mischund aus Zitrus- und Röstaromen liefert.

Bei J.M. Labruyère wird viel Wert auf den biologischen Weinbau gelegt und somit war die Umstellung des Betriebes auf BIO im Jahr 2020 der logische Schritt. Auch die Biodiversität spielt eine Rolle bei Labruyère. So findet man zwischen den Hängen verschiedene Bienenstöcke, die in den natürlichen Kreislauf perfekt implementiert wurden.

Um die Identität der Terroirs zu respektieren, wird jede Parzelle einzeln gekeltert und vinifiziert. Der Ausbau findet in Edelstahltanks, Demi-Muids, oder in Holzfässern (einige stammen von der Domaine Jacques Prieur) statt.

Sie reifen mindestens 3 - 5 Jahre auf der Hefe, werden niedrig dosiert und man verwendet höchste Sorgfalt bei der Auswahl der Reserveweine. Bei den Jahrgangschampagnern lässt man ihnen sogar bis zu 10 Jahren Zeit, um auf der Hefe zu reifen.

Nach dem Degorgieren ruhen die Weine nochmals 8 Monate im Keller, bevor sie dann in den Verkauf gebracht werden.

Labruyere Prologue Extra Brut

69% Pinot Noir 31% Chardonnay Dosage: 0,8g/l From the plots Les Potences, Les Longues Raies, Les Rochelles, Champs Saint Martin in Verzenay 27% reserve wines 20% aged in wooden barrels at Domaine Jacques Prieur in Burgundy Five years of bottle aging Nicola JUN22: Nicely spicy, complex aromas of dried fruit, toasted aromas, coherent character, very harmonious and elegant, Long lasting nutty finish. Winery: The powerful structure of Pinot Noir is enlivened by the tension of Chardonnay. Moritz OCT22: The Cuvée Prologue is the entry point of the Domaine Labruyere. Getting started is an absolute understatement. As soon as you smell it for the first time, your eyebrows will be raised. Such complexity is not expected from the "base" cuvée of a domaine. It is immediately clear that the champagne Prologue is incredibly fresh and playful. Some cooked rhubarb and red apple are balanced beautifully with a slight herbaceous note. The first sip surprises as the wine is incredibly precise yet super juicy. The nose is reflected magnificently on the palate. The Prologue is deep, superbly balanced, and despite its complexity, accessible and charming. Aperitif character at a high level.

Labruyère Paradoxe Blanc de Noir Brut Nature

100% Pinot Noir Dosage 0g/l From the plots: Les Champs Saint-Martin, L'Espérance 5 years of bottle aging Giuseppe Lauria Chedredaktion Editor-in-Chief APR23: Beautiful, radiant rose gold. Characterful appearance with a wide-ranging bouquet with raspberries, red fruits tossed in butter, the finest butter pastries, all accompanied by saline undertones, a touch of Williams pear resonates. Powerful, masculine but with a lot of enamel. The mousseux is very juicy and gives the champagne an invigorating freshness and subtle tension right through to the long, tart, fresh finale. 18/20 –2030 Nicola MAI22: Strongly vibrant, long, nice wood influence, complex! Paula Bosch SEP22: This single-varietal Pinot Noir was pressed white, given 5 years to mature in the bottle and bottled without dosage. The result is a very spicy, uncompromising, bone-dry Champagne with a salty note, a powerhouse with great character. If you are looking for a link to Burgundy in Champagne J.M. Labruyere, you have the best example with Paradoxe. Despite the tremendous richness in the mouth - a whole cello concerto takes place here - each sip remains in harmony and balance, without corners and edges, the fine, compact mousse caresses the palate. The animating acidity makes the Paradoxe an ideal food companion from caviar to langoustine, Breton turbot in Beurre Blanc with morels to a zabaglione with crepes and caramel ice cream. What distinguishes this champagne is its seasoning full of character. Moritz OCT22: The beautiful rose gold is radiant in the glass. The paradox is characterized by an angular dark berry fruit. The mousseux is very juicy and gives the champagne a pleasant freshness. The finish is long and slightly tart, which gives the wine even more excitement.
