R&L Legras - Champagne Grand Cru - Tour d'Argent - Blanc de Blancs

Wine:

Tasted a little over a year ago and very lightly dosed, the Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne captures all the graceful momentum of the Chouilly terroir. Its delicate, abundant effervescence offers a highly engaging, refined, regular bubble.
