Item # 36571 750mL

A delightful blend of three varieties coming from seven parcels just south of Epernay, the Marne Valley and the Côte de Blancs. Part of the wine is fermented in old oak barrels, yet on the palate you'll find an exquisitely refined Champagne that is elegant and full of lively fruit aromas. This isn't just an apéritif wine, but can also work throughout a dinner - especially if seafood is on the menu.

Staff Pick Notes

Lahèrte is a no-brainer, meaning you don't need to think twice before grabbing this bottle. The classic triad of Champagne grapes, coming from vineyards in the Côte des Blancs and Vallée de la Marne, are blended carefully into this extra brut cuvée. The chalky minerality that Champagne is known for is on full display here. Citrus mousse and tart pears are pierced with tangy, savory notes to round out the sensory experience on the palate. Pair with seafood crudite or salade olivier. It's a bullseye of energy and verve in every sip. If only all decisions in life were this easy.

Glossary

Pinot Noir

The Burgundy region of northeastern France is the historic home of the Pinot Noir grape, and is the source of the world’s greatest examples. Here one finds renditions of Pinot Noir that deliver power with finesse and grace, wines that have unimaginable depth of flavor, yet are perfectly balanced and ephemeral in the mouth - in short, wines that deliver all that Pinot Noir has to offer. Terroir, the concept that wines from a specific region have unique and identifiable traits, is intricately...

Champagne

Champagne is finally getting the recognition it deserves as a brilliant food wine. For consistency and quality, turn to the big Champagne brands and you’ll never go wrong. Remember that “Non-Vintage” (NV) is not a dirty word here: NV Champagnes are blends of wines from the best growing seasons. But if you can find one, try a Champagne made by a Grower-Producer. These winemakers control every aspect of grape cultivation and vinification, from the vine to the finished bottle, which is...

Chardonnay

From Champagne to Chablis, it's hard (not to mention unpleasant) to avoid this famous white variety. During a huge popularity surge beginning in the late 1980s, Chardonnay plantings have increased dramatically -- not only in California's wine country, with which the variety is nearly synonymous, but also in Burgundy (its original, Old World home) and just about everywhere else in the winemaking world. It is a flexible, eager-to-please grape, responding well to just about anything a winemaker...
