Gault&Millau's review 2025

Yellow fruit intermingles with blood orange, grapefruit and kumquat. On aeration, spicy aromas (cinnamon, star anise), coffee and caramel add roundness. More acidic, the palate is dynamic, with tension and roasted fruit. A wine of character with a mineral finish.

Lété-Vautrain

Lété-Vautrain was founded in the 1960s by Robert Lété and his wife Liliane Vautrain, in Château-Thierry. The estate has grown from a few acres to over 7 ha. Of this area, the vines stretch over the communes of Château-Thierry and Essômes-sur-Marne. A few vines are located in the commune of Leuvrigny, a stone's throw from Épernay, the Lété-Vautrain terroir of origin. In 2011, the estate was taken over by Baron-Fuenté. The range of champagnes is relatively narrow, centered around a "Brut Zéro", created in 2008, with no dosage, and a vintage that waits at least seven years in the cellar. All offer excellent value for money and consistency.
