Laherte Freres, Champagne Ultradition Extra Brut [base 2022], NV outofstock-34475900985 having survived the phylloxera epidemicAurlien Laherte represents the new wave of small scale, terroir focused Champagne makers. This Extra Brut blend of 60% Meunier, 30% Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir gains complexity from 50% reserve wine and extended time on the lees.
