(NV Legras Brut Champagne Blanc de Blancs) #1; COLOR-medium golden; NOSE-very complex; rotten bread component (that I like); a mustard component; smoked wood action; great apple core & pears; has the complexity of $100 bottles; TASTE-great bubble action; great acidity; this has the chops of Crystal of Dom; very focused; I like this a whole lot; great mouthfeel; dominated by Granny Smith apple candy flavor, but very focused high acid ripping through; very food friendly (Lobster); can put away for 5-7 years easy; ST-92; GV-93+

Glad I got a good stash of the 2008 based release (old label) as this just keeps giving a wonderful drinking experience. Almost 2 years since the last bottle and this was round creamy and balanced. Still fresh and not showing any signs of oxidation. Even better after 20 -30 minutes.

Dinner w/ Jim & Michelene at our place. I feel goofy saying this but tonight this was more impressive than the 2013 Dom Perignon that followed. I opened one of these for the pre-dinner "kitchen staff"; Craig, Nita & Joe and couldn't stop benchmarking it in my head with the 2013 Dom we served later. Side by side and blind I might have guess this to be the Dom. Always one of our favorite house champagnes, year in and year out. Let's see, one 2013 DP or six of these for the same cost. Something to ponder :). Normally DP easily walks away with the prize. I hope the 2013 impresses more down the line.

Bought these in 375 and they are missing the "Grand Cru" designation under the word "Brut." Hard to believe that would be an oversight or accidental, so we suspect this is not the wine we are used to and it showed in the battle.
This is missing some of the acid and chalkiness we've come to expect. Maybe it's a base vintage thing, rather than not being grand cru? Not sure, but we're a little disappointed.

Tasted blind. very typical blanc the blanc. Well balanced and complex for a NV. Lemon, nutty and pastery on the nose. Very flowery on the palate. Nice Champagne that i like to drink more from.

Pale gold color. Drank 2 glasses to kick off our North Shore excursion. These are so damn good, I hate to even add, at the price point. The nose is precocious, with its fresh pear notes wrapped up in pie crust and creamy patisserie, green apple, biscuit and light toast. The palate echos the purity of pear fruit, pastry cream, stony spice notes and a definitive toasty note on an elegant finish. Just delightful. 92+ to 93pts.
