Champagne Valentin Leflaive

Avize|17|40

The Champagne Avize|17|40 by Valentin Leflaive is a Blanc de Blancs made exclusively from Chardonnay, sourced from carefully selected parcels surrounding the Grand Cru village of Avize. Each parcel is managed and vinified separately to highlight the unique characteristics of the terroir.

The 2017 base vintage, enriched with 30% vin de réserve, undergoes its first fermentation in stainless steel vats, followed by over 60 months of ageing on the lees. The final dosage of just 4 g/l – Extra Brut – perfectly reflects the distinctive mineral elegance of Avize.

On the palate, Avize|17|40 presents a golden-yellow hue with a fine, persistent effervescence. The nose is rich yet delicate, with aromas of lemon and grapefruit evolving towards honeysuckle, enhanced by subtle chalky nuances. The palate is precise and intense, echoing the citrus bouquet and extending into a long, harmonious saline tension.

Valentin Leflaive

Valentin Leflaive was born as a journey through terroir and memory, the result of a historic family adventure. Its roots lie in Puligny-Montrachet, where the Leflaive family has cultivated Chardonnay and Pinot Noir with precision. Since 2015, Olivier Leflaive has opened a new chapter in Oger, a Grand Cru village in the Côte des Blancs, dedicated to single-vineyard Champagnes (Lieux-Dits) with a fresh and contemporary style.

In 2020, the Maison obtained Négociant-Manipulant status and settled in Oger, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs, in a cuverie with a chalk cellar. Led by Jean Soubeyrand and cellar master Elysé Brigandat, the work begins with selecting the most outstanding parcels in Champagne. The philosophy is based on a single-vineyard approach, with tailor-made vinifications to preserve the identity of each origin.

The winemaking process favours precision: fermentations in tanks or Burgundy barrels from the Grands Crus of Puligny-Montrachet achieve a balance between tension and freshness. The goal is to express the nuances of the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims terroirs without artifices, with ageing on lees that gives complexity. At the core of the style lies transparency, clearly stated on the label with a code revealing origin and characteristics.
