Les Empreintes is another blended beauty from Laherte that deeply expresses the identity of their unique terroirs. Blend of 50% Chardonnay (1/3 Chardonnay Muscaté) from Chavot parcel of Les Chemins d’Epernay planted in 1957, and 50% Pinot Noir from Chavot parcel of Les Rouge Maisons planted in 1983.  Primary fermentation in neutral barrels from Burgundy, aged 6 months with regular lees stirring, no malo, 5 years aging in bottle, dosage extra-brut of 4 gr/l. Les Empreintes is the quintessential expression of Chavot terroir with its flinty clay topsoils and chalky subsoils.
