Laherte Freres Champagne Extra Brut "Ultradition"

Laherte was officially founded in 1889, when the family started bottling their own Champagne instead of selling off all their prime fruit to the larger houses. Organic and biodynamic farming are in place as they believe that healthy soils produce far more thrilling wines. This extra brut is made from 60% Pinot Meunier, 30% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Noir with 4.5 grams of sugar per liter, (dry). Tons of dried fruit on the nose, along with spice and mouthwatering minerality. On the palate there is more dried fruit but more dried apricot and pears with a fierce blast of blood orange.
