Description

- We do not ship this cuvée to Italy -

Clos Le Léon 2015 is the flagship of Maison Marc Hébrart!

This cuvée is made with Chardonnays from Clos Le Léon, planted in 2008 at a density of 8300 vines per hectare. This secluded vineyard is located in Dizy, on the historic Coteaux de la Champagne.

The 2015 vintage not only represents an extraordinary harvest, but also the recognition of Champagne as a UNESCO World Heritage Site! The ripening of the grapes, thanks to a cool late summer, gave birth to juicy, ripe and concentrated grapes!

This cuvée is vinified in small 228 L oak barrels with indigenous yeasts and blocked malolactic fermentation. Aging takes place on fine lees for 7 months, and on laths for 72 months.

This champagne is dosed Extra Brut, at around 3 g/L, to preserve the personality of the terroir and the authenticity of the vintage.

" Due to its location in the terroir, its exposure, the early ripening, the outcropping chalk, the quality of the grapes and the wines produced from this parcel, I consider Clos Le Léon to be the future emblematic cuvée of the HEBRART estate" Jean-Paul Hébrart.
