      Purity, depth, and singular site expression define this iconic grower Champagne from Jérôme Prévost. La Closerie Les Béguines LC23 Extra Brut NV is sourced from a single hectare of old-vine Pinot Meunier planted in the village of Gueux, within the Montagne de Reims. This historic parcel, Les Béguines, sits on sandy soils over limestone, producing fruit of remarkable aromatic lift and textural depth. The LC23 release continues Prévost’s meticulous multi-vintage approach, blending recent harvests with reserve wines to build complexity while preserving the character of the site.

      In the glass, the wine is expressive yet composed, revealing layers of fruit, spice, and mineral nuance. Fermentation and ageing in used oak barrels contribute subtle structure and a gently oxidative character, enhancing both texture and aromatic breadth. The low dosage allows the wine’s natural balance to shine, with a fine mousse carrying flavours seamlessly across the palate. There is a quiet intensity here—richness without excess, power without weight—guided by precision and restraint. As it opens, the wine reveals increasing detail and nuance, rewarding both immediate enjoyment and patient contemplation. It pairs effortlessly with dishes such as roasted poultry, truffle-infused preparations, or aged Comté, while also standing confidently on its own.

      “The NV Extra-Brut Les Béguines LC23 is terrific. Rich, ample and creamy, the LC23 offers up an exotic mélange of dried pear, spice, chamomile, dried flowers and lightly honeyed notes. This is an especially open-knit, expressive Béguines. It will drink well right out of the gate.”

      — Antonio Galloni, 94 points

      “The NV Extra-Brut Les Béguines LC23 (2019-2020) is excellent, wafting from the glass with aromas of pear, sweet citrus fruit, white flowers, freshly baked bread and subtle hints of spices. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, with a fleshy core of fruit, racy acids and a long, penetrating finish, it’s another fine release from Prévost.”

      — William Kelley, 93 points

      Jerome Prévost

      Jérôme Prévost is a winemaker whose artistry and philosophy revolve around purity, patience, and a deep connection to his terroir. Based in the picturesque village of Gueux, on the edge of the Montagne de Reims, Prévost is a micro grower-producer known for his commitment to crafting exceptional wines from his two-hectare plot of 40-year-old Meunier vines. His journey into winemaking began in 1998 when his close friend, Anselme Selosse, encouraged him to start making wine, offering him the use of his winery until 2003. Since then, Prévost has continued to refine his winemaking techniques, initially producing his wines in the garage behind his home.

      Prévost’s philosophy is rooted in minimal intervention and a profound respect for the natural expression of the land. His wines are a reflection of his belief that the terroir should shine through in every bottle, with no excess manipulation. He focuses on producing a single wine each year from his estate and the Meunier grape variety, allowing the wines to evolve and develop their complexity over time. His approach to winemaking has earned him a cult following, and his wines are revered for their complexity, energy, and longevity. By limiting his production and focusing on the intrinsic character of his vineyards, Prévost offers a rare and authentic expression of Champagne, capturing the essence of his unique terroir.
