Description
A 100% Meunier from Troissy, Vallée de la Marne
Alexis Leconte’s Champagne ‘Le Terre Mère’ Extra Brut is an authentic and refined expression of Pinot Meunier from selected vineyards in Troissy, in the prestigious Vallée de la Marne. The grapes come from the lieu-dits La Pièce des Cotéas (west facing) and La Pièce des Uselants (north-north-west facing), characterised by stony, marly, clay and sandy soils, elements that give the wine a distinctive minerality.
Vinified using an artisanal approach, this Champagne is aged in wood and terracotta amphorae, without malolactic fermentation, thus preserving freshness and tension. The tirage took place in April 2020, while dégorgement was carried out in February 2022, with a dosage of 3.2 g/l, maintaining the pure character of the terroir.
A Champagne of Gastronomy and Character
Perfect for those seeking a Champagne Blanc de Meunier with character, Le Terre Mère is ideal for pairing with oysters, shellfish, tuna tartare, foie gras and soft cheeses. Its structure also makes it excellent with white meats and umami-rich dishes.
Discover this unique Champagne, which perfectly embodies the terroir of the Vallée de la Marne and Alexis Leconte’s production philosophy based on respect for nature, artisanal vinification and long maturation on the lees.
