Léclapart's non-dosage cuvée that didn't see any oak treatment. Extremely dry palate, lots of citrus. I had difficulties enjoying it from the start. After one glass it was put aside. Next day: other story. The wine showed much more roundness on the palate & had a friendlier (and longer lasting) after taste. Easy to enjoy now! Another example of a Léclapart champagne that needs serious decanting.

This champagne's proven itsef to be somewhat inconsistent in my experience with every bottle delivering different results. I guess that partly reflects David's winemaking philosophy. This particular one was shining — crisp, bright, friendly yet complex. Keeps you interested for sure.:)
