NV Champagne Laherte Frères Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature

From: Champagne, FranceVarietal: Chardonnay Taste & Critical Acclaim: Chiseled and mineral, this gorgeous champagne starts out linear and ramps up power to become more toasty, rich, and powerful (give it about 20 minutes after opening). Zesty citrus, Asian pear, and toasted apple with a steely middle open to more toasty brioche notes and a rich, creamy, leesy center. A saline minerality is at the core of this wine and continues to the finish, both upon opening and with air. Lovely, focused, balanced, and precise. WA 91 pt "Based on the 2018 vintage and disgorged this year, the NV Brut Nature Blanc de Blancs derives from vines growing in the chalky Côteaux Sud d’Épernay. Unwinding in the glass with notions of crisp green apple, nougat, fresh bread and Meyer lemon, it's medium to full-bodied, chiseled and chalky, with tangy acids and a long, saline finish even in this demonstrative vintage.”Pairing: This beautiful BdB Brut Nature is one of our favorites to share because it appeals to
