WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Laherte Frères Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature begins with a gentle pressing of Chardonnay grapes. Fermentation is carried out using native yeasts in a variety of vessels, including old French oak barrels, foudres, and truncated cone vats. Regular lees stirring (bâtonnage) is practiced, and partial malolactic fermentation is common. The wine undergoes aging on lees for a minimum of six months, with reserve wines, comprising 50% of the blend, aged in barrels. The final step involves hand disgorgement. The winery employs organic and biodynamic farming practices, avoiding chemical products.
