Aurélien Laherte is a passionate champion of Champagne's heirloom grape varieties. His Les 7 parcel (which includes all seven of Champagne's permitted grapes) was planted in 2003, and things have snowballed since. As a result of this planting, Laherte has developed a strong passion for the potential of Petit Meslier, and in 2013, he planted a small parcel in Chavot using mass-selection cuttings.
Based on the 2019 vintage, this rosé is a 50/50 blend of Pinot Noir and Petit Meslier from two plots in Chavot on clay-silt soils. Following a 12-hour maceration, the grapes naturally fermented in a single, neutral barrel. The wine aged on lees in bottle for 30 months before disgorgement in November 2022, with no dosage.

Reviews

Note: This note refers to a previous disgorgement. “The NV Brut Nature Meslier & Pinot is a wild, eccentric wine. Dried flowers, ginger, spice, mint and sweet floral accents are all beautifully lifted. An equal blend of Petit Meslier and Pinot Noir, bright Meslier acids pull it all together here. This stylish Champagne is a winner. Zero dosage. Disgorged October 2022."
