About this Item

1999 Blanc de Chardonnay
1 (1 x 1) 1500ml

Champagne DUVAL-LEROY was founded in 1859 when two Champagne families came together to share their interests. Since its creation, Champagne DUVAL-LEROY has been located in Vertus, in the heart of "La Cote des Blancs". Currently the House cultivates about 200 hectares, much of which is devoted to production of high quality Chardonnay grapes. The predominance of Chardonnay in the elaboration of the cuvees gives a finesse, lightness and elegance to DUVAL-LEROY champagnes. Headed by Carol DUVAL-LEROY since 1991, the company is one of the few remaining 100% family-owned Champagne firms and is ranked in the 15 top Champagne houses. The House was ranked #20 most admired brand by Drinks Business Magazine in 2019.

Critics Ratings

'Rich and creamy, this features well-defined flavors of peach, honey and roasted almond. Bright and refreshing, with a long, nutty finish. Has fine harmony and balance. Drink now through 2018.' - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, 92/100 (Dec 2007)
