‘Laherte Frères was founded in 1889 by Jean-Baptiste Laherte, although the Laherte family sold grapes to the local cooperative for many years. Michel Laherte, the father of current proprietors Thierry and Christian Laherte, began to bottle champagne under his own label, and when brothers Thierry and Christian took over the estate, they appropriately changed the name back to Laherte Frères. Since 2002, the estate has been in the hands of Thierry’s son Aurélien, who represents the seventh generation of his family to grow vines in this area. This is a true grower Champagne, as all the grapes are estate-grown. "Ultradition’" Brut is a Pinot Meunier (60%) dominant blend, rounded out with Chardonnay (30%) and Pinot Noir (10%), fermented in foudre, tank, an d barrel, with regular lees stirring. This is a sparkling wine defined by great energy, with flavor notes of dried orchard fruit, ginger, and crushed flowers.
