Champagne R & L Legras,
Drink now,
This, quite simply, is one of the finest Non Vintage Chardonnay Champagnes that one is likely to find, rather like Krug Grande Cuvée in its multi-vintage Grand Cru assemblage and its encyclopaedic complexity.
Aged on lees for over ten years, the Hommage is rich and exotic on one level, with plenty of nutty depth, but also wonderfully fresh, linear and precise. Powerful enough for langoustines and other fruits de mer, this is so good that it works well as both aperitif and digestif…a revelation!

Although one should not necessarily judge a Champagne by the number of listings it has in the Michelin restaurants of Paris, one can not fail but to be impressed by Legras in this respect, in many other respects indeed as one tastes the wines.
Founded in the sixteenth century Legras is one of the great names of Chouilly, the famous and most northerly village of the Côte de Blancs. The House style combines a firm and classic structure with a generous fruit profile.
