Located in the Coteaux Sud d’Épernay, Laherte Frères are one of the most exciting grower-producers in the entire Champagne region.
Run by the dynamic Aurèlien Laherte, representing the seventh generation of the family, the domaine covers about 10 hectares over 75 parcels mainly around the village of Chavot.
Each parcel is fermented and matured separately in old barrique and foudre, as was traditional in Champagne prior to the 1950s.
The dosage is low (less than 6g/l) as the generosity of fruit and the richness from barrel fermenting makes anything higher unnecessary. These are stunningly textured, racy, terroir-driven wines that are quite unlike any other champagne we’ve tasted.
