Champagne Laherte Frères is a historic estate founded in 1889 and located in the village of Chavot, where the family manages over 11 hectares of biodynamic vineyards with deep respect for natural heritage. Known for championing forgotten grapes, the winery dedicated single-varietal focus to the exceptionally rare Petit Meslier, an ancestral variety that accounts for less than 1% of total Champagne plantings. This specific bottling is sourced from precise mid-slope plots in the Chavot terroir, where the vines thrive in unique clay-silt soils sitting directly above soft, mineral-rich chalk. By fermenting this historic fruit in traditional oak barrels, the estate preserves the grape’s signature high acidity while drawing out a deep, expressive sense of place.
