The 2020 Extra Brut Les Empreintes, a balanced blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in equal measure, is exceptionally refined. Its vibrant notes of tangerine peel, spice, dried flowers, and a subtle touch of French oak create a remarkable textural depth. Among the range, this wine stands out as one of the most approachable and layered.
Notes on the producer
Laherte & Frères are based in Chavot-Courcourt just to the south of Epernay in an area that falls between the Côte des Blancs and Vallée de la Marne. Domaine head Aurélien is part of a dynamic young generation of vignerons making waves in Champagne and producing a fine array of terroir-driven champagnes, adopting a natural approach to viticulture, looking for balance in their grapes, soils and vineyards.
