Champagne AOC Extra Brut Blanc de Noirs Les Rouges Maisons 2020 Laherte Frères

Champagne Les Rouges Maisons by Laherte Frères is a cuvée that arises from a long and careful work in the vineyard and winery, aimed at enhancing the richness and complexity of Pinot Noir with extreme finesse. The grapes come from plots located in the Chavot terroir, characterized by deep soils with a significant presence of clay, flint, and schist, on a chalky subsoil. The vines, planted in 1983, benefit from careful agronomic management respectful of nature, influenced by ecological methods.

The harvest is carried out manually at perfect ripeness, followed by traditional pressing. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in barriques, with subsequent malolactic fermentation to soften the flavor profile. The wine matures for 18 months on the fine lees, developing complexity and aromatic depth.

In the glass, it expresses itself with great elegance, revealing the purity of Pinot Noir. On the nose, it offers a harmonious combination of fruity and mineral notes, with hints of red fruits, delicate spices, and a subtle savoriness. On the palate, it is broad and structured, with a perfect balance between freshness and depth, accompanied by a persistent and refined finish.

It pairs perfectly with dishes featuring white meats, roasted poultry, and soft-rind cheeses.
