2013 Champagne Leclerc Briant, Château d’Avize, Blanc de Blancs, Grand Cru, Brut Zéro (pre-arrival)

Description

Château d’Avize is one of only a few châteaux in Champagne, and the only one with a Grand Cru postcode. Using their biodynamic principles, Hervé Jestin and the Leclerc Briant team have created an extraordinary, age-worthy Champagne which demands cellaring to reach its potential.

This Blanc de Blancs combines Leclerc Briant’s characterful, stimulating style; the tension of the 2013 vintage; and the power of the Avize terroir – the grandest of all the villages in the Côte des Blancs. Avize, already home to some of Champagne’s most iconic and collectable producers, has a new star.

This second release of Château d’Avize confirms the quality and position of this magnificent single-vineyard wine as one of the most exciting releases of 2023.
