Laherte Frères
Les 7 Extra-Brut Solera
Champagne | Blanc | NM
This wine stands out for its artisanal winemaking process, in which the grapes—hand-harvested at peak ripeness—are gently pressed. Slow, spontaneous fermentation in oak barrels aged at least 10 years, combined with aging on fine lees and regular stirring, highlights the complexity and finesse of this Champagne. The absence of malolactic fermentation preserves a lively freshness, and the blend, inspired by the solera method, ensures remarkable depth and consistency.
Les 7 Cépages is a unique extra brut champagne made from the seven grape varieties authorized in Champagne: Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Blanc, Petit Meslier, Arbane, Pinot Noir, and Fromenteau. This wine, sourced from a single vineyard planted in 2003, has been aged in a solera system since 2005,
