Champagne Laherte Freres Les Vignes d Autrefois Extra Brut 2014

AG 94 pts

The 2014 Extra Brut Vignes d’Autrefois, 100% Meunier, is powerful and radiant on the palate, with tremendous depth and exceptional overall balance. Mirabelle, kirsch, dried herbs, dried pear and spice notes are front and center. Ethereal, light on its feet and also quite exotic, the 2014 is superb. I would prefer to drink it over the next handful of years. This is a compelling expression of Meunier. Dosage is 2-4 grams per liter. Disgorged: January 2018.
