David Leclapart L’Aphrodisiaque Premier Cru 2017

“David Léclapart crafts Champagnes of personality and distinction from his tiny cellar in Trépail. Then again, virtually all of the attention is in the vineyards, where meticulous farming and a strict adherence to biodynamics are the guiding principles. In the past, I have found these wines both eccentric and inconsistent, but when they are on, they are captivating. These are rich, vinous Champagnes that benefit from considerable aeration and enough time to follow their gradual evolution in the glass.”

Antonio Galloni, Vinous (07/15)
