Marguet's Yuman Champagne is a must-try from the estate. This 100% Chardonnay is made from grapes grown in the premier cru terroirs of Villeneuve Renneville and Villers Marmery, cultivated using biodynamic methods. Pressed using a high-quality Coquard press, fermentation is initiated by indigenous yeasts, allowing for an authentic expression of the terroir. The wine then undergoes prolonged aging on lees for nine months, respecting the lunar cycles to optimize its natural development.
This Blanc de Blancs is distinguished by its freshness and fruity character, enhanced by the total absence of dosage (Brut Nature, 0 g/l of added sugar). Marguet is committed to sustainable winemaking, with minimal use of sulfur.
In a pale yellow, crystalline case with silvery highlights, it reveals a delicate and pure expression on the nose. Notes of pink grapefruit, lemon zest and a hint of jasmine intermingle. After aeration, notes of fresh almond and chalk typical of these Champagne terroirs appear. On the palate, the attack is straightforward and the bubbles are fine and elegant. The perfectly controlled liveliness brings a vertical relief that carries a silky texture. The aromatics, mainly mineral, carried by a beautiful salinity on the finish, give Yuman 22 a refreshing and racy persistence.
Yuman offers a unique and refined experience, perfectly embodying this passionate winemaker's quest for quality and respect for the environment.
