Laherte Freres Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature 300cl

13% abv

Vol- 300cl

The Blanc de Blancs is made with their best parcels on the southern slopes of Epernay. This is a perfect representation of the purety and energy coming from this area and the complexity of old vine Chardonnay. The vines are grown with the respect of nature, using organic and biodynamic practices. The vines are around 35 years old.

This wine is 100% Chardonnay with around 50% of the cuvee being made up of reserve wines from previous vintages aged in barrels on the lees.

All of the grapes are picked up by hand when fully ripen, then put in a traditional press. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in vats, foudres and barrels. There is partial malolactic fermentation in this cuvee. Ageing on lees takes place for 6 months. All bottles are disgorged by hand with zero dosage.

“Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature : The NV (2014) Brut Nature Blanc de Blancs is once again one of the stars in the range, not to mention an absolutely insane value in the world of fine wine. Bright, sculpted and classy to the core, the 2014 dazzles from the very first taste. Citrus, mineral and floral notes abound in this super-expressive, finely-cut Blanc de Blancs. Crystalline and energetic, the Blanc de Blancs has so much to offer.

Laherte Frères was founded in the nineteenth century with current winemaker Aurélien representing the 7th Generation. They own nine hectares of land spread over ten communes and an astonishing seventy different parcels. Vineyards are currently farmed biodynamically or are in the process of conversion. The family holdings are mainly located around Épernay, nearby Chavot (where the winery is located), Moussy and Vaudancourt. In addition, they own parcels in the Côte des Blancs and the Marne Valley. They cultivate all three main varieties with Pinot Meunier very well represented as one would expect given the local terroir. Primary ferments are mostly in wood - small barrels and foudres - with only partial malolactic and 6 months lees aging before secondary ferment. Dosage is kept low and each wine is carefully crafted to see the varieties used best exploit the estate’s patchwork of fine terroir. “These Champagnes reinforce my strongly held view that Aurélien Laherte is one of the most talented vignerons of his generation in Champagne. The range this year is truly stellar. Readers who have not tasted these Champagnes owe it to themselves do so. Aurélien Laherte is young, passionate and humble. It is only a matter of time before he is recognized as one of Champagne’s elite vignerons. As for the wines, they are spectacular”. Antonio Galloni, Vinous
