JM Labruyere 'Prologue' Extra Brut Champagne Grand Cru
This lovely, pinot-dominant Champagne is a light, spicy treat. Brioche with berries on the nose make it a match made in heaven for brunch dates, while the attractive, fleshy palate and crisp, dry, succulent finish would be welcomed just about any time, day or night. Raise a glass to great value with a primo Champagne at a perfect price.

An uncompromising Champagne for a non-vintage wine with a lot of smoky character woven between the orange fruit. Concentrated and structured, but beautifully balanced, the mineral acidity and fine mousse counterbalancing the richness. Breathtakingly long complete finish in spite of being bone dry. A cuvee of 69% pinot noir and 31% chardonnay from Verzenay and Verzy based on the 2018 vintage with reserve wines from 2016, 2015 and 2014. 20% of the base wine was vinified in oak casks, it went into the bottle for second fermentation on April 26th, 2019 and was disgorged on November 4th, 2022. Almost no dosage. Drink or hold.
