Champagne Marguet Vertus 2017

Champagne Marguet Vertus 2017 is a focused Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs that shows Benoît Marguet’s deeply individual approach to Champagne. Crafted from 100% Chardonnay in the village of Vertus, it combines biodynamic farming, low-intervention winemaking, and extended aging to express purity, energy, and remarkable site character. The result is a Champagne that feels both precise and expressive, shaped by a producer who works with nature rather than against it.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, Vertus 2017 typically shows a fine, luminous golden hue with a persistent, delicate mousse. The nose is poised and layered, with aromas of citrus peel, green apple, white flowers, chalk, and subtle brioche notes from extended lees aging. The palate is taut and mineral-driven, with crisp orchard fruit, lemon zest, saline freshness, and a sleek, chiselled texture. The absence of dosage gives the wine a dry, transparent finish that highlights its purity and tension. This is a Champagne with excellent aging potential, likely to gain further complexity over the next several years as the chalky depth and autolytic character continue to evolve.

Viininvalmistus
The grapes come from two small biodynamically farmed parcels in Vertus, with old and mature Chardonnay vines rooted in Champagne’s chalk-rich terroir. Each parcel is handled individually to preserve its own identity, and the fruit is harvested and sorted by hand. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts in a combination of used barrels and one egg-shaped Taransaud foudre, with malolactic fermentation allowed only if it occurs naturally. The wine rests on its lees until July following the harvest, then undergoes a secondary fermentation and matures for more than 40 months on the lees before disgorgement, with no dosage and no filtration.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This is a versatile Champagne for refined dishes such as oysters, sashimi, scallops, grilled white fish, poached chicken, or a young Comté. Serve chilled at around 8–10°C to preserve its tension and aromatic detail. Decanting is not necessary, though allowing it a few minutes in the glass can help open up its mineral and floral nuances.

Tuottaja
Champagne Marguet is led by Benoît Marguet, a visionary grower based in the Montagne de Reims who has earned a reputation for artisanal, terroir-focused Champagne. His work is closely associated with biodynamic farming, parcel-by-parcel vinification, and an almost spiritual connection to the vineyard. Marguet has become one of the most distinctive voices in modern Champagne, admired for wines that balance precision, energy, and a deeply personal expression of place.
