Jean-Baptiste Laherte set up the family estate in 1889, planting most of the vines in the village of Chavost, which was to become Chavot. The estate gradually grew over generations, and covers today over 11 hectares through the Champagne region. The sixth and seventh generations are now working together to create wines that are just like them – pure, sincere and authentic. They share their experience and combine their efforts to make the most of this beautiful heritage.

Champagne’s soil is made up of a variety of micro-terroirs, with a chalky and limestone mother rock in the most interesting areas, which is essential to bring finesse to a great wine.

Since 2011, they have also been buying the equivalent of 4 hectares of grapes to winegrowers who share their philosophy. Those grapes come from the Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne and Côte des Blancs areas. They try to preserve the singular nature of this terroir variety, which contributes to the richness and the diversity of the Laherte Frères wines.
