100% Meunier Dosage: 2,5g/lAged in traditional 205 l barrels, made from regional oak, for 11 months18 months bottle ageing Riddled by handUnfined and unfilteredThe work is very manual and laborious, with a great sense of time and the needs of wine.The second coup of the highly gifted "newies" of Champagne. L.P.M refers to the area north-west of Reims, originally called "La Petit Montagne", in which their vineyards are located. Now that another area bears this name, it can no longer be written out on the label for Maximes and Anna's champagne and is therefore "encrypted". Giuseppe Lauria Editor-in-Chief WEINWISSER APR23: I enjoyed a good 1-hour adventure with this Blanc de Noirs. Because it changes in 10-minute intervals. Initially very restrained, it only reveals its facets with increasing airflow. After 30 to 40 minutes it really gets going: At the beginning only very delicate grapefruit notes, followed by yellow fruits like pear and a touch of marzipan, later bright and light red berries like raspberry join them, which skillfully blend into one with the distinctive sea breeze exciting piece of finesse to be captured in the finale by fine spices such as fennel. An elegant champagne with great evolution in the glass. 17.5+/20-2029 Lukas FEB23: On the nose raspberry, pear and ripe peach with hints of melon and grapefruit in the background. In the mouth juicy lemon and grapefruit, some pear and lemongrass, plus a present and crisp acidity that gives a lot of traction and makes for a great drinkability. A lot of potential for the future, a lot of fun in the glass and a joy to drink right now, but also a very capable food companion. Nicola JUL21: Incredible fragrance that draws you in, very beautiful, subtle honey note, very exciting soft-spicy beguiling, very own aroma, also again wonderful food companion, has something sweet (not sweet), something red-fruity, very light red cherry, red pepper, slight maturity.

100% Chardonnay from the single vineyard "La Pierre St-Martin“ Dosage: 0g/l  Vinified in oak  Old vines from 1946 L’Apôtre is the estate's top cuvée — a single-vineyard champagne from the La Pierre St-Martin vineyard, with vines planted in 1946 by Léclapart's own grandfather. The wines are barrel matured in order to match the concentration and intensity of grapes from these old vines. In each vintage, L’Apôtre is known for presenting the greatest complexity and expressiveness of any of the cuvées.

50% Chardonnay25% Pinot Noir 25% Meunier Dosage: 0g/l Since 2006, Marguet has been working with Hervé Jestin, the former chef de cave of Duval-Leroy who is now a consultant to many wine estates around Europe. Marguet has gradually integrated Jestin’s homeopathic and biodynamic practices into his own winemaking, and the two of them have collaborated to create a special, naturally grown champagne that encapsulates and expresses Jestin’s philosophies. The first vintage of this super-cuvée was 2006, released in 2013, and the production was divided: half of it was sold under the Jestin label, with the other half under the label Sapience, which Marguet has indicated is a separate brand from the Marguet label.

Created from the best grapes in only the best years: 2004 - 30%, 2002- 21%, 2000 - 18%, 1999 13%, 1998 - 9%, 1996 - 6%, 1995 - 2% Average age of the vines: 33 years Vinification: 100% used barrel, no malolactic fermentation Terroir: Les secs, les blans de beurys, les goisses, les noirs de genettes, les vaux saint basle, les fournettes, le noyer saints pys, les morrins, Les Agusons, les grandes ruelles, Les Crayeres. Significant influence from Krug Grande Cuvée, a masterpiece of nuanced, subtlety and complexity. Balanced with the highest level of elegance, and not a trace of overcompensation from strength. A complexity requiring both time and attention. 70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay, Dosage 4g Nicola FEB24: Balance and profound harmony and complexity at its best. Vibrating sensuality, ultra long-lasting. Insane nutty resonance. Moritz FEB24: The Grands Vintages cuvée is very calm and profound. A fine smokiness, light brioche notes, and zesty aromas stand balanced in the glass. The acidity is gripping yet gentle (if that makes sense). The perlage dances over the tongue, and flavors of clementine and salt lemon provide that certain grip. The finish? Ultra-long. The hairs on your arms stand up with each sip. A champagne with a goosebump factor.   Type: Champagne Alcohol content: 12% Net volume: 750 ml Producer's Address: Champagne Eric Rodez, 4 Rue Isse, 51150 Ambonnay, France Allergy Information: Contains sulfites.

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.
