Critical Acclaim

92 points, Vinous: "The NV Brut Nature Blanc de Blancs is wonderfully precise and nuanced, sourced from the southern slopes of Épernay and the Côte des Blancs. Crushed rocks, lemon peel, mint, white pepper and bright saline notes all run through this super-expressive, taut Blanc de Blancs. This is classic Laherte. No dosage. Disgorged: April, 2023. Drink: 2023-2031. "

92 points, John Gilman: "The current release of Laherte Frères’ Blanc de Blanc Brut Nature is from the base year of 2020 and was disgorged in January of 2023. The vins clairs are all barrel-fermented for this wine and aged seven months in cask prior to bottling up for secondary fermentation, with partial malo. The bouquet is beautifully pure and precise, wafting from the glass in a mix of apple, pear, raw almond, chalky soil tones, bread dough and a topnote of white flowers. On the palate the wine is brisk, full-bodied, focused and complex, with a lovely core of fruit, fine soil signature and grip, elegant mousse and a long, young and very nicely balanced finish. To my palate, with zero dosage, this wine still needs several years in the cellar to allow the acids to back off a bit more. For Brut Nature purists, it is already very tasty. 2028-2045."

91 points, Wine Advocate: "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. Drink: 2021-2033."

91 points, Wine & Spirits: "You have to love acidity to appreciate this wine, its fruit on the underside of ripeness, so brisk it might make you shudder. The austerity—some would say bitterness—is cushioned by touches of fresh cream, almond and crunchy apple flavors. For oysters."
