About this product
Dry, Light Bodied style of Sparkling WineChampagne, France100% old vine Pinot Meunier. Les Vignes d’Autrefois (the vines of another time) is made from a single four-tonne press of grapes from old vines planted between 1947 and 1964 that grow in several chalky terroirs in Chavot and Mancy. Emblematic of the quality being achieved at Laherte today and reflecting the fruit’s tension and low-yield intensity, this offers a wonderful balance between penetrating, spicy and fleshy red fruit and salty, racy deliciousness. One of the great Meunier bottlings of Champagne.

Vintage 2017

“The 2017 Extra Brut Vignes d’Autrefois, 100% Meunier from vines planted between 1947 and 1964, offers plenty of depth, texture and resonance. Orchard fruit, spice, ginger, dried fruit and plum meld together in a Champagne of real gravitas. There is certainly plenty to look forward to. The 2017 is perhaps just a touch slender, but in exchange it will drink well pretty much upon release.” 93 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous
