About this Wine

Disgorged May 2023. Aurélien Laherte has been experimenting with a sans soufre (zero-sulphur) cuvée for several vintages. In 2018, he cracked it with two barrels of Côte des Blancs juice, drawn from two Premier Cru terroirs in Vertus and Voipreux. Laherte noted that the critical factors to the stability of vinifying in the absence of any additions were zero dosage and full malolactic conversion.
The third release of Laherte’s Nature de Craie is drawn from a single vintage (2021) sourced from vines planted in 1960, 1965 and 1987. The word craie refers to the chalky soil of these terroirs, which lie on the lower slopes, ensuring good exposure and in turn providing fruit ripeness and no need for additional dosage. From hand-harvested and traditionally pressed fruit, this release was vinified in neutral oak barrels before aging on cork for 12 months. It was disgorged in April 2023 with no dosage.
