It&#8217;s based in Ambonnay, and all the wines are hand-riddled, hand-disgorged and produced from vineyards farmed without herbicides or chemicals. In 2010 Ledru lost 4 of her 6 hectares when the family sold off some vineyards. The result? These wines are getting even harder to find. But if you can get them, they are spectacular value for money.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Champagne Marie-No\u00eblle Ledru Grand Cru NV France<br \/>\n<\/strong>This is exceptional. Taut, fresh and lemony it has bright citrus fruit. Pure and linear with a hint of cherry. Juicy and bright with amazing precision, stunning focus and keen acidity. I think this was the 2014 disgorgement, but I&#8217;m not sure. 94\/100\u00a0<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Find this wine with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wine-searcher.com\/index.lml?referring_site=WAN\" target=\"_blank\">wine-searcher.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>GROWER CHAMPAGNE:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-agrapart-avizoise-extra-brut-grand-cru-2008\" target=\"_blank\">Agrapart Avizoise Extra Brut Grand Cru 2008<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-gimonnet-blanc-de-blancs-cuvee-cuis-1er-cru-nv\" target=\"_blank\">Gimonnet Blanc de Blancs Cuvee Cuis 1er Cru NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-vilmart-cie-grand-cellier\" target=\"_blank\">Vimart et Cie Grand Cellier NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/another-lovely-champagne-gatinois-ay-grand-cru-nv\" target=\"_blank\">Gatinois A\u00ff Grand Cru Brut Tradition NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-michel-arnould-grand-cru-brut-reserve-nv-france\" target=\"_blank\">Michel Arnould Grand Cru Brut R\u00e9serve NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/ulysse-collin-les-maillons-blanc-de-noirs-a-sensational-champagne\" target=\"_blank\">Ulysse Collin Blanc de Noirs Les Maillons Extra Brut NV France<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-pierre-peters-cuvee-du-reserve-blanc-de-blancs-grand-cru\" target=\"_blank\">Pierre P\u00e9ters Cuv\u00e9e du R\u00e9serve Blanc de Blancs Brut Grand Cru NV France<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-rl-legras-blanc-de-blancs-grand-cru\" target=\"_blank\">R&amp;L Legras Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-bereche-et-fils-campania-remensis-extra-brut-rose\" target=\"_blank\">B\u00e9r\u00eache et Fils Campania Remensis Extra Brut Ros\u00e9 NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/a-great-lunch-at-social-wine-and-tapas-with-savart-and-pignan\" target=\"_blank\">Savart L\u2019Ouverture Premier Cru NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-raphael-vincent-bereche-montagne-2004\" target=\"_blank\">Rapha\u00ebl &amp; Vincent B\u00e9r\u00eache Montagne Premier Cru 2004<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/two-from-champagne-savart\" target=\"_blank\">Savart L\u2019Accomplie 1er Cru NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-vilmart-et-cie-grand-cellier-dor-premier-cru-2010\" target=\"_blank\">Vilmart et Cie Grand Cellier d&#8217;Or Premier Cru 2010<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-marie-noelle-ledru-grand-cru-nv\" target=\"_blank\">Champagne Marie-No\u00eblle Ledru Grand Cru NV<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is one of the cult grower Champagne producers.\u00a0Marie-No\u00eblle Ledru took over her 6 hectare family domain in 1984.
