Description

Champagne Lelarge-Pugeot
Les Meuniers de Clemence 2015

The Champagne Extra Brut Les Meuniers De Clemence by Lelarge-Pugeot is a 100% Meunier blend from the 40-year-old vineyards in the village of Vrigny, classified as Premier Cru in the Montagne de Reims. The fermentation of this Blanc de Meunier takes place in wooden barrels, using indigenous yeasts, followed by an aging of about 5 years in the cellar. The dosage is 2 g/l of sugar - making it an Extra Brut

Les Meuniers De Clemence is a Blanc de Meunier of great character and expressiveness: the nose opens with aromas of red berries, ripe pear, citrus honey and dried fruit, in the mouth is of great freshness and verticality with a fine bubble and an excellent finish. Suitable for aperitifs or throughout the whole meal with fish, in combination with traditional dishes such as shrimps and steamed scampi.

Champagne Lelarge-Pugeot

The Domaine Lelarge-Pugeot has a history of well over 200 years, when the first ancestor of the Lelarge family settled in Vrigny, in the north-western part of the Montagne de Reims, a village now classified as Premier Cru. Here, the long tradition of agriculture and family wine-growing began, intertwined with European history and overcoming two wars, arriving at the bottling of its first cuvées in the distant 1930s. More recently - in the early 1980s - Dominique Lelarge took over the reins of the estate and married Dominique Pugeot, his partner at the Burgundy School of Viticulture. The two founded the current Lelarge-Pugeot, and from the very beginning their production was based on sustainability and respect for nature and biodiversity. This philosophy has consolidated year after year in the two winegrowers who move from the grassing of the vineyards to the use of horses for work in the vineyards, until they received the organic certification in 2010, the same year in which the first cuvée 100% Meunier was bottled, from the ancestral grape of the Domaine.  Today, Lelarge-Pugeot is certified organic in all its vineyards, with a part in conversion to biodynamics - which already in 2017 played a role for the certified vintage. Less and less importance towards harvest quantity and more and more constant quality characterize the production of the Domaine, which has now started a new generation of young vignerons - the eighth - who aim at creating cuvées and Coteaux de Champenois Rouge that are sincere and authentic results of a great terroir and the wisdom of a family with a long history of wine-making.
