Legrand-Latour was one of the most exciting Champagne arrivals in years, born from the wild story of Thibaud's father Patrice, who hand-dug tunnels beneath the family home hunting fossilized sea creatures, creating the Cave a Coquillages. Thibaud farms biodynamically by hand in Fleury-la-Riviere, ferments spontaneously, ages in barrel, and triggers the second fermentation with fresh juice from the next harvest, the Agrapart method, so the wines stay pure with no added sugar. Each cuvee is named for the geological layer beneath the vines. Ypresien is the Blanc de Noirs, Meunier-led with Pinot Noir off the marl and fossil-rich soils of Vandieres and Verneuil, built on the racy 2021 vintage. Barrel-aged then years on the lees, zero dosage.

Antonio Galloni

"The NV (2020) Brut Nature Ypresien is 80% Meunier and 20% Pinot Noir. Aromatic and soft, the Ypresien is an understated Champagne, one that makes itself felt with a hush rather than a roar. All the elements are so well balanced. Crushed flowers, mint and dried amaro herbs lend complexity throughout. Sites in Vandières and Verneuil shaped by a light hand in the cellar confer notable finesse. No dosage." —Antonio Galloni

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast chicken, charcuterie, mushroom dishes, aged Comte, or a holiday turkey. Versatile at the table.

Tasting Profile

Dry and structured, with orchard fruit, citrus peel, white spice and a saline, chalky depth. Fine bubbles, taut acidity, long incisive finish.

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
