WINE MAKING PROCESS
Leclerc Briant employs biodynamic viticulture across its vineyards, which are located in prestigious Grand Cru and Premier Cru areas of Champagne. Grapes are sorted and gently pressed. Base wines undergo fermentation, with a portion potentially aged in barriques. The final cuvée is assembled, followed by secondary fermentation in the bottle. The wine matures on its lees for an extended period before disgorgement. A distinctive technique used by the producer is bottling at lower pressure.
