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.

Tasting Notes Antonio Galloni : Les Empreintes is a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, a portion of which is Chardonnay Muscatel. Lemon drops, mint, white pepper and exotic floral notes all grace this intensely aromatic, beguiling Champagne. It possesses captivating inner sweetness and impeccable balance, not to mention a truly distinctive personality. Quite simply, it is really unlike anything I have ever tasted. 93/100
