Laherte Frères Blanc de Noirs Brut Nature Champagne Pinot Meunier Pinot Noir NV

FRANCE : CHAMPAGNE : COTEAUX SUD D'EPERNAYBIODYNAMIC : Pinot Noir, Pinot MeunierMED-BODIED, DRIED PEAR, KIRSCH, MINERAL CHALK, PASTRY, NO OAKEqual parts Pinot Noir and Meunier from the Coteaux Sud d'Epernay and Vallée de la Marne — half of it reserve wine from prior vintages, aged in barrel, which is why this has depth that most non-vintage Champagne doesn't. No dosage: zero residual sugar, nothing softening the chalk. The wine tastes exactly like the terroir wants it to.Laherte Frères is a seventh-generation family estate in Chavot, biodynamically farmed since Aurélien Laherte took over in 2005. He co-founded the "Terres et Vins" collective with Bérèche, Agrapart, and Laval — names that have defined grower Champagne for the past decade. Vinous 92 pts.PAIRINGS : Oysters on the half shell zero dosage and chalk acidity cut brine cleanly; nothing sweetens the interference Duck confit Pinot Noir structure handles the fat a Blanc de Blancs wouldn't; the kirsch echoes dark meat Aged Comté autolytic brioche and mineral length are a natural foil for aged alpine cheese
