A. Margaine Le Brut

A. Margaine Le Brut Champagne NV
Villers-Marmery | Montagne de Reims | Champagne, France

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Producer & Origin
Since 1796, the Margaine family has cultivated the vineyards of Villers-Marmery, a unique terroir at the heart of the Montagne de Reims. In a region dominated by Pinot Noir, the exposure of these slopes — and their chalky soil profile — allows Chardonnay to shine with finesse, vinosity, and singular expression.

In recent years, viticulture here has advanced tremendously: the family’s 10 hectares are now organically farmed, with meticulous soil work adapted to each plot. The vines are of advanced age, adding depth and character.

Grapes & Vinification
90% Chardonnay, 10% Pinot Noir — reflecting the vineyard composition and standing apart from the Pinot-dominated surroundings.

• 70% reserve wines (from 2012 to 2020), adding remarkable complexity and harmony.

• No malolactic fermentation in any A. Margaine Champagne, preserving freshness and tension.

A Champagne with structure and lightness, perfect both for newcomers and connoisseurs alike. Non-vintage, blending multiple harvests to achieve elegance and consistency.
