Lot #2191. David Leclapart l'Artiste Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs 2007

Description: Consists of 6 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 93 JG.
". . . a superb example of young Blanc de Blancs. The bouquet wafts from the glass in a refined mix of pear, delicious apple, crème patissière, gentle nuttiness, a complex base of chalky minerality, apple blossoms, a whisper of buttery oak and incipient smokiness in the upper register. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, brisk and rock solid at the core, with fine focus and grip, elegant mousse, laser-like focus and a very long, nascently complex and snappy finish. The balance here is impeccable, but this is still a young wine and without any dosage, bottle age is going to be needed to soften up some of the sharp edges. It will be brilliant in good measure, but exercise a bit of patience!" John Gilman, View From the Cellar, Issue #69
Provenance: The Analemma Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
