For this, Herve Jestin, the cellar master, made a singular cuvee of only 3,000 bottles, composed of the 2014 vintage (a blend of 50% Chardonnay and 50% Pinot Meunier). 10% being of three vintages (2008, 2009 and 2010) sourced from the historic 2.5ha parcel of Les Ch�vres Pierreuses, in the village of Cumi�res. This is the only parcel that belonged to the original estate during the Pascal Leclerc era. It is co-planted with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. Disgorged in February 2022 with a dosage of 2g\/L, Leclerc Briant’s limited edition 150th Anniversary cuvee has a delicate, energetic and perfumed bouquet with lemon oil, citrus, herbs, pear, and peach aromas intertwined with hints of spices and spring flowers. Tense and profound, perfectly balanced with a pinpoint mousse, the palate is fresh and elegant and has an underlying crystalline sensation serving as a counterpoint to the fullness of the texture.
