Laherte Frères
Ultradition Blanc de Blancs Brut Champagne Chardonnay
The Laherte “Ultradition” BdB pours a straw bordering golden color with a persistent mousse. Visually, it’s a somewhat diminutive version of the “glitter” I’ve witnessed from vintage Laherte. High intensity with incredibly ripe apples and white peach with an touch of an autolytic note. On the palate, the wine is full of fruit, again with the apples and white peach. Medium+ acid. Almost too easy to drink! Disgorged September of 2020 and while it’s labeled Brut, the dosage is labeled less than 5g/l which means it technically falls in the Extra Brut category.

Thinking this would be a great hot-summer-day champagne as it is bright and not sweet, rather than a good toasty champs for winter.
