Champagne M. Marcoult Orée Brut Nature Barbonne-Fayel NV

“This is positively stellar, offering up rich brioche notes, wet slate, white truffle and earth. A frothy, bright, and zesty mousse, resolves with loads of citrus, orchard and stone fruit character, with a dazzling mineral-scented finish. This is such a satisfying and enjoyable Brut Nature, with excellent mid-palate richness with less than 3 grams of residual sugar to balance out the laser-focused acidity. 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir. In Cézanne, Champagne M. Marcoult crafts distinctly food-driven Champagnes—widely poured on major Parisian wine lists—categorized into ‘Bistro’ and ‘Gastronomy’ cuvées and produced with the rare advantage of their own in-house cooperage.”
