Rémi Leroy Blanc De Blancs 2011 Magnum

The Côte des Bar is the part of the Champagne region most exposed to spring frosts. In addition, Chardonnay is an early-budding grape variety and therefore very sensitive. Climate-related crop losses are frequent, but almost every year Rémi Leroy creates his vintage cuvées, vinified in wood from Chardonnay grapes grown on these capricious hills.
