Champagne Legras & Haas in Chouilly, Côte des Blancs
Legras & Haas is a classic family-owned smaller grower Champagne house in the heart of the Champagne region in Chouilly, a Grand Cru village in the Côte des Blancs. They have 95 acres -many in very presitigious grand cru sites under vine. The Legras family has deep roots in Chouilly. For six generations they farmed their land and sold the grapes to the big Champagne houses. It was only in 1991 that François Legras decided to produce his own Champagne after he met Brigitte Haas who had come from the Alsace. Together the couple built one of the great grower Champagne houses that pays attention to soil preservation, artisanal techniques and focuses on specific terroirs to produce an array of truly distinctive Champagnes of quality.
Today Champagne Legras & Haas is run by their children, brothers Rémi, Olivier and Jérôme. Working as a family is still central to their Champagne making. All blending decisions are made together as a family.
Legras & Haas - Demeine Estate
François Legras was born into a family with four centuries of grape growing experience in Chouilly and by age 16 was learning the skills of vine-grower and cellar-master from his father. François went on to marry Brigitte Legras, née Haas, and Champagne Legras & Haas was established in 1991. Today it is run by their three sons, Olivier, Rémi and Jérôme.
Chouilly is the northern-most Grand Cru village in the Côte des Blancs, whose coveted vineyards produce the finest Champagnes. The Legras-Haas family cultivates 18 hectares of vines, comprised of 35 parcels, throughout the village of Chouilly, which offers an extraordinary diversity of chardonnay styles. The family owns additional vineyard properties in Vitry (southeast of the Côte des Blancs) and Les Riceys in the Côte des Bar. In total the family farms almost 37 hectares in these outstanding terroirs.
All the Legras & Haas Blanc de Blancs wines, from the non-vintage Brut to the vintage single-vineyard Les Sillons, are 100% estate-grown. For their compelling and lauded blends tier, including Intuition Brut, Brut Rosé and Exigence, the family uses both estate fruit and grapes purchased from long-time partners in Aÿ and Leuvrigny. The Legras family act as stewards of their vines, respecting and maintaining the ecosystem so they may deliver dynamic wines that are aromatic, graceful and approachable in their youth and retain poise and freshness while developing complexity and depth with age.
Weingut Huber has about 600 barrique barrels and replaces about 150 barrels each year.
