2013 was an exceptional year: after a cold winter and a cool spring, the grapes ripened late, yet the quality exceeded expectations. The best Chardonnay grapes were carefully harvested from the vineyards of Chouilly Grand Cru village, and after different fermentation processes in oak and steel barrels, they revealed deep and elegant aromas. The wine was aged on lees for more than 8 years, which imparted a delicate texture and a long-lasting flavour.

The aroma is distinctive – gentle citrus and orchard fruits intertwine with floral hints, while aging on lees provides subtle yeasty and nutty notes. The taste is exceptionally elegant, mineral, with a fresh acidity, and the finish lingers. Volume - 0.75 l

About the manufacturer

Pierre Legras is a family-run champagne house located in the Grand Cru village of Chouilly, in the Côte des Blancs region. The tradition of winemaking dates back to 1662, when Pierre Legras was born, considered the founder of this dynasty. In 2002, Vincent Legras, a representative of the eleventh generation, founded the Champagne Pierre Legras brand in honor of his ancestor. With the help of his father, he expanded the farm from 5 to more than 10 hectares, of which 7 hectares are in the Chouilly Grand Cru vineyards. In 2011, his wife Marcelline joined the business.
Today, Champagne Pierre Legras is famous for its Blanc de Blancs champagnes, made from Chardonnay grapes grown in limestone soil, which gives the wines a distinctive minerality and elegance. The farm uses sustainable farming and has been certified HVE3 (Haute Valeur Environnementale) since 2020.
