Sweet dried cherry, mint, tobacco, game, licorice and amaro herbs waft from the glass. Strong savory and earthy notes lend quite a bit of complexity. Readers should expect a fairly eccentric style. Dosage is 2.5 grams per liter. Disgorged: December 2024; multiple disgorgements throughout the year.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e- By Antonio Galloni on November 2025\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt’s always a pleasure to taste through the Laherte Champagnes, as they express so much site, variety and vintage character. The finest wines in this lineup really have the ability to transport the taster. The top selections are aged in barrel. Although malolactic fermentation is blocked wholly or partially in almost all the wines, Laherte does stir the lees to build texture. Dosage is on the low side. For readers who want to explore the cutting edge of grower Champagne, I can think of few estates that match Laherte for the breadth and quality of the wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVivid and expressive, with aromas of wild strawberry, red currant, and blood orange layered over rose petal, spice, and a faint smoky nuance. The palate is energetic and structured, with a fine, vinous texture carrying bright red fruit, citrus zest, and a subtle earthy undertone. Dry and precise, it finishes long and savory, with lingering berry fruit, gentle grip, and a touch of mineral tension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis cuvée is made exclusively from \u003cstrong\u003ePinot Meunier\u003c\/strong\u003e , from the Les Beaudiers plot in Chavot.

These characteristics give the cuvée a remarkable minerality and freshness.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis is a saignée rosé. After meticulous sorting of the grapes harvested at optimal ripeness, the berries are destemmed. Then begins a 12 to 14-hour maceration. Alcoholic fermentation takes place slowly and spontaneously in barrels, without malolactic fermentation. Aging on fine lees for 6 months, with regular stirring, guarantees a rich and complex texture. The dosage is Extra Brut to bring a beautiful balance to the rich fruit notes brought by the saignée technique.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Champagne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41355062870150,"sku":"AD-LHroseSAIG","price":78.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0075\/0338\/0543\/files\/laherte.jpg?v=1763911039","url":"https:\/\/www.winesolutions.com\/products\/champagne-laherte-freres-beaudiers-saignee-rose","provider":"Wine Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
