Champagne Laherte Frères - Blanc de Blancs - Brut Nature
Champagne Laherte Frères is located in Chavot-Courcourt, south of Epernay, between the Côte des Blancs and the Marne Valley in Champagne . The estate was founded by Jean-Baptiste Laherte in 1889. In 2002, Thierry and Christian Laherte (the sixth generation) were joined by Thierry's son, Aurélien (seventh generation). The latter has run the company since 2005. The estate today has 11 hectares of vines spread across different parts of Champagne, on 75 plots. Since 2011, Laherte has also purchased the equivalent of 4 hectares of grapes from winegrower friends with the same winemaking sensibilities as them. They are located on the Montagne de Reims, the Vallée de la Marne and the Côte des Blancs. This diversity of terroirs makes all the richness and diversity of Laherte Frères wines.
