Champagne Laherte Frères
Champagne Laherte Frères, established in 1889 by Jean-Baptiste Laherte, is a family-owned estate located in Chavot, near Épernay, in the Champagne region of France. Now managed by the seventh generation, Aurélien Laherte, the estate has become a dynamic and progressive producer in the region. Laherte Frères practices organic and biodynamic viticulture, emphasizing minimal intervention to express the unique characteristics of each parcel. Approximately 80% of their wines are fermented and matured in oak vessels, including 350 barrels, six casks, and one truncated-cone tank. This approach preserves and highlights the distinct personalities of each terroir.
Description
"The NV Brut Nature Blanc de Blancs is bright and finely sculpted right out of the gate. The blend of 50% 2021 and 50% 2020/2019 comes across as a bit austere, but that’s not surprising given the base 2021 vintage. Crushed rocks, mint, citrus, white flowers and sage all take shape. As always, the Brut Nature Blanc de Blancs is a Champagne of great character. It's a terrific value, too. Disgorged: January 2024" Vinous
