NV Laherte Frères ‘Les Longes Voyes’, Champagne
Les Longues Voyes translates as 'the long way', referring not only to the 25 km that you need to travel from the Laherte Estate to arrive at the vineyard, but also the wine's extended aging: 18 months in barrel and 18-20 months in bottle.
- Antonio Galloni : The dark, brooding side of Pinot emerges as the Longues Voyes starts to open in the glass. There is a real sense of gravitas here. Pear, white flowers, spice and almond are all nicely woven together. Even with all of that intensity, the 2016 retains gorgeous aromatic lift and freshness. 94 / 100
