Champagne Marguet
Grand Cru Bouzy Champagne Blend
Right now nobody in Champaign is pushing the envelope with biodynamics and organics as much as Marguet from what I can see. The results are stunning over the years how he’s fine tuned his growing and winemaking philosophy to these natural pillars of winemaking.
Fine Mousse of tiny bubbles. Crystalline red berries, crisp lines, vibrant and dense but filigreed. Long in the mouth and finish. 
Young but very expressive now. Mouthwatering freshness washed over in waves on the palate like waves on a beach.
Very cool wines and not just asthetics, textures and style these or cool and sharp!

Outstanding right out of the gate. A pretty yellow robe with intense perlage initially. An abundance of fine bubbles and innate creaminess. The nose positively explodes with dainty white flowers and salinity. A pinch of cherry and fresh herbs. There’s enough oak to say hello along with lemon peel and almond slivers. Mirabelle plums and warm yeast.
Pure Pinot Noir from one of my favorite areas, Bouzy. Benoit Marguet has long been one of the standard bearers in Champagne of terroir driven, naturals wines with bare minimum dosage and minimal use of sulfites. And that makes a difference. Terroir driven indeed, the essence of Bouzy. Bone dry and full bodied, I love how vinous of a champagne this is. Elegance is not sacrificed in any way with a premium mouthfeel. Almost four years on lees and disgorged in March of 2019.
On the palate you’ll find pure bliss. Intense minerality and toasted brioche. Rich and generous with orchard fruits and just the right amount of oak. Plenty of citrus and high acidity with a touch of really nice red fruit. Long courtly finish. This is special stuff.

Flowery fruity sharp tasty but somewhat woody champagne. Love this.
