A vintage Champagne, structured and elegant, crafted for gastronomy.

The Millésime 2016 cuvée from Champagne Leclère Pointillart marks a clear move upmarket in the house style, with a selection of grapes sourced only from the finest years.

Still rooted in the Premier Cru terroirs of the Montagne de Reims, this cuvée is based on a balanced blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Pinot Noir brings structure and depth, while Chardonnay gives the wine tension and elegance.

The 2016 vintage was a contrasting year in Champagne, marked by a difficult spring with frost and disease pressure, followed by a more favourable summer.
It was a demanding vintage that reveals its quality only through rigorous selection.

Compared with the Tradition and Sélection cuvées, which are more approachable and immediate, this vintage offers a more complex, more structured and more accomplished expression of the estate’s style. Here, there is greater maturity, precision and length.

Extended ageing for several years on the lees plays a key role: it refines the texture, develops more evolved aromas and gives the wine a true gastronomic dimension.

With a Brut dosage, the balance remains perfectly controlled, allowing the natural richness of the vintage to express itself without weighing the wine down.

A cuvée designed for the table, revealing its full potential alongside more elaborate dishes and embodying the estate’s expertise in its best years.
