David Leclapart Champagne L'Amateur Blanc BV 2022《ZTF218》

The history of this small family winery on the southern slopes of Epernay - La Marne valley began in 1925, when Jean-Marc's grandfather Henri came from his native Poland to settle in Boursault. Henri ran a small farm with his wife Françoise Bagnost, who herself came from a family of Champagne winegrowers. In the 1960s, Henri planted vines in the already prestigious Moussy and Pierry areas and released the first wines in 1969. His son Richard, a trained oenologist, made a great contribution to modernizing practices and clarifying winemaking methods and breeding.

The winery has only 3 hectares of vineyards. It is a small-scale champagne with small quantity and fine quality. The brewing philosophy is to abide by pure nature, respect ecology and avoid artificial techniques. The vineyard is located in the village of Trépail on the southeast slope of the REIMS Mountains. The soil is a mixture of clay rich in flint and limestone.
