Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature

This blanc de blancs from Laherte Frères comes from the estate's best Chardonnay parcels. The vines are on average 35 years old. Farming is traditional and sustainable, with influences from organic viticulture. The house omits dosage entirely. That leaves Chardonnay alone at the centre, with its clarity and minerality.

Expect a tight, precise champagne without any sweetness, one that wakes up your palate. It is an excellent aperitif, for instance with amuse-bouches, puff pastry or cheese gougères. It is especially fitting with oysters and a seafood platter, whose salty freshness it picks up. Serve it at 8 to 10 °C in a white wine glass or a tulip glass, so that the aromas can unfold.
