About the Wine
Rosé champagne made by the rarer saignée style hinges on bleeding colour directly from perfectly ripe grape skins. A more intensive and costly process, it rewards with rosé of remarkable depth of colour, body and flavour.
It’s a method generally only undertaken by small scale producers like Laherte, able to oversee the entire farming journey with impeccable detail, from growing, to picking and pressing.
Drawn from old vine plantings from the 50s, here the risk is all reward. With its savoury tones and rich red fruit, this singular, structured rosé is sheer drinking delight.
About Laherte Freres
Laherte Freres (the brothers Laherte) are based in Chavot, just to the south of the famous Champagne town of Epernay. Grape growers for generations, they are now at the vanguard of the recent grower Champagne revolution, respecting the soil and the environment while making some astonishing, characterful wines.
With a rare terroir-focused philosophy, meticulous biodynamic viticulture and traditional winemaking (lots of large old wood is used) these are Champagnes to make you drink and think.
Look out for zero dosage Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier Rose and a cuvee made from six varieties!
