Domaine Marguet: a biodynamic vision of Champagne.
Located at Ambonnay, in the heart of the Champagne region, Domaine Marguet stands out for its commitment to biodynamics, a Rare approach in Champagne. This conversion, initiated by Benoît Marguet, has profoundly transformed practices at Domaine.
While Benoit's parents Marguet sold their grapes to the house Krug, Benoit Marguet developed his own wine range with numerous parcel-based cuvées highlighting the diversity and richness of the old vines of Domaine.
As a fervent advocate of Biodynamics, Benoît Marguet, has revolutionized working methods by introducing biodynamic preparations, phytotherapy and aromatherapy. He has also introduced tillage with draught horses. The 8-hectare Domaine obtained Demeter certification in 2013.
Benoît's approach Marguet is guided by respect for natural balance, service to life, and delicate accompaniment of the winemaking process, avoiding any Brutality. Particular attention is paid to fermentation and ageing under wood. The use of sulfites is minimized.
At the same time, a significant effort has been made on dosage, drastically reduced or even eliminated on most cuvées. This development demonstrates that meticulous work in the vineyards produces wines that are authentic, expressive and naturally balanced by their terroir.
The culmination of this approach is represented by the cuvée Sapience, the result of a collaboration with oenologist Hervé Jestin.... See more ...
Les Saints Remys Lieu-dit 2020, from vines planted in 1975 and 1992, is a 100% Pinot Noir cuvée with no added sugar (0 dosage, brut nature), showcasing remarkable complexity. This cuvée, produced every two years, will only have 1,781 bottles for this vintage.
This Champagne, made from a selection of plots, has an intense golden color with amber and copper highlights and a captivating brilliance. The first nose offers a deep and complex bouquet, marked by aromas of ripe fruit and dried flowers. After aeration, nuances of vanilla, roasted hazelnuts, and sweet spices appear, adding a delicious and refined dimension. On the palate, the attack is round and generous. Flavors of vine peach, candied quince, and gingerbread dominate the mid-palate, supported by a salty minerality that brings an elegant tension. The long and persistent finish reveals intense fruit notes that linger on the palate.
