Champagne R&L Legras Brut is a pure and very satisfying expression of Chardonnay; the Brut has been aged for three years on its yeast and has a modest dosage of 6 g/l. The floral aromas are complimented by an autolytic yeastiness and yellow fruits on the palate. Linear and focused, yet not without an attractive depth of flavour, the wine has a long mineral finish.

Great to see Berry Bros taking the trouble to source a range of growers' champagnes. Lovely development on the nose. Graceful and zesty on the palate. Real filigree texture. Lovely and complete. Quite long. Quite a bargain for Berrys.

For better value and often more individual wines, "grower champagnes"- from small producers using their own grapes - are worth exploring.Berry Bros has a good range: R&L Legras Blanc de Blancs NV is excellent - honeyed and long.

A beautiful floral nose is followed by a peachy bready fruit that lingers long.
