We have another excellent Champagne from Liébart-Régnier, “Les Sols Bruns” Brut, which is a Meunier-based grower Champagne made with 60% Pinot Meunier, 20% Chardonnay, and 20% Pinot Noir, built on a 2021 base with 70% reserve wines from 2011–2020, aged for 3 years on the lees, and finished at a precise 5 g/L dosage. Sourced from Baslieux-sous-Châtillon and Vauciennes on marl, clay, and limestone soils, it reflects the estate’s Vallée de la Marne identity, with third-generation sisters Alexandra and Marion doing excellent work creating this cuvee. The profile is full-bodied and expressive, showcasing notes of apple, fig, and liquid minerals, as well as biscuit, with impressive depth and richness for the category. The finish is zesty, saline, and packed with dry extract. These bottles arrived before tariffs took effect, which has helped keep pricing low and makes this a rare best buy Champagne that overdelivers at this price!
