Laherte Freres Blanc de Blanc NV Champagne / Brut Nature

Ryan Mitchell — Birthday treat that delivered

9/10

Bought this for my 40th and honestly it was the highlight of the night. Really crisp and mineral-y, almost like wet stones if that makes sense? Zero dosage means it's bone dry which I love — no sweetness hiding anything. At £53 it's not cheap but for a special occasion champagne it's absolutely worth it.

Nia Okafor — Grower champagne convert

9/10

I've been getting into grower champagnes lately and this Laherte is one of my favourites so far. Blanc de blancs so it's all chardonnay and you can really tell — elegant and structured with loads going on if you pay attention. The brut nature style is so refreshing after years of drinking overly sweet fizz. Had it with some oysters and it was unreal.

Sophia Laurent — Bit pricey for what it is

7/10

Saw this on a restaurant wine list and looked it up later to buy a bottle. It's clean and well made, nice mineral thing going on, but for £53 I feel like there are better options out there. My partner thought it was a bit too dry as well. Would be a solid 8 if it was closer to £40.
