Description

100% Cramant Grand Cru - Côte des Blancs. 100% Chardonnay - Blanc de Blancs

Nose which opens with notes of yellow fruits and toasted hazelnuts. This authentic, structured wine will delight your taste buds.

Gold with green highlights. A subtle nose, with notes of peach, pear, almond and toasted hazelnut. On the palate, the wine with its fine and buttery texture, typical of Chardonnay, expands. We find the minerality of this great terroir in its finish which stretches with fine and saline bitterness.

The Valentin Leflaive story has its roots in the history of the Leflaive family in Puligny-Montrachet, which has been guided for several centuries by a love for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and the search for precision in the expression of Burgundy terroirs.

Daring to take risks has become the hallmark of Olivier Leflaive. Since 2015, a new chapter has been written in Oger, at the heart of the great terroirs of the Côte des Blancs, that of a Champagne de Lieux. Olivier chose the first name of his son Valentin, born in 2007, for this new, fresh and slightly offbeat project.

Valentin Leflaive

Daring to take risks has become the hallmark of Olivier Leflaive.

Named for his son Valentin, this estate is a fresh, slightly offbeat project for the Burgundy producer. Valentin Leflaive is an invitation to discover the best of what Champagne has to offer, an excursion into terroirs and memories.

Champagne

It is particularly famous for its traditional method sparkling wines, known simply as Champagne, made primarily from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier grapes. These wines are celebrated for their fine bubbles, crisp acidity, and complex flavours, often displaying notes of citrus, apple, brioche, and minerals. The region is divided into several sub-regions, including Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne, and Côte des Blancs, each contributing unique characteristics to the wines. With its long history of winemaking excellence, distinctive terroir, and luxurious wines, the Champagne region offers an unparalleled experience for wine enthusiasts seeking the epitome of sparkling wine.
