    The wine

    Yields for this vintage cuvée are intentionally limited in order to obtain the best grape quality. Most of the vines used in its composition are planted on light, shallow soils, the majority of which are limestone with a southerly exposure. An ideal terroir for this great wine, produced mainly from Chardonnay grapes with the addition of some Pinot Meunier and matured in barriques on fine lees for six months with regular stirring until spring.

    Information about domain Laherte Frères

    This illustrious champagne house, founded in 1889, is now under the care of its fifth and sixth generations. Thierry and his son Aurélien manage the property masterfully, with vineyards extending across over 11 hectares on the Côte de Blanc, the slopes of Sud d'Epernay and the Marne valley. A certain philosophy is applied to the vineyard work with a preference for natural practises. Laherte Frères is one of those rare houses still growing some of the Champagne region's forgotten grape varieties, namely Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Petit Meslier and Arbanne which all go into Les 7 along with the three classic varieties. The vineyards are propagated using massal selection and the majority of champagnes are vinified in wood. The élevage is particularly well executed and precise without going over the top. Malolactic fermentation is often avoided. This vineyard produces excellent, flavoursome de terroir champagnes with a strong personality. They are particularly popular with connoisseurs and critics.
