Michel Marcoult, Champagne brut new Tradition NV

A historic cuvée of the domain Marcoult, this champagne is for everyday, gourmand, flattering and light, is representative of our approach to winemaking. For this cuvée, we practice a rigorous and careful vinification with a double fraction of the cuvées in order to obtain a better selection of the blends, but also to constitute our reserve wines and thus benefit from a more important panel during the blending. The vinification is done in small stainless steel tanks thermoregulated at low temperature. We practice cold settling and low temperature vinification. we keep pumping to a minimum. Three quarters of the reserve wines are made from Chardonnay. nice golden color with a fine collar of bubbles, the first very fruity nose reveals a beautiful maturity, and lets foresee a beautiful sweetness. we find notes of citrus fruits, yellow peaches in syrup, orange, and honey, but also more subtle notes of hazelnut, almond and jasmine. the mouth is harmonious, very balanced, light and greedy with aromas of white stone fruits and pear in syrup. A beautiful finish with a hint of lime ensures a long finish.

Michel Marcoult

The family business was created in 1967 by Michel Marcoult who lovingly passed the baton and all his wine making knowledge on to his son Francis. As the estate continues to respect tradition it also develops and cultivates wines of the highest calibre, garnering numerous awards inthe process. Fortunate to work with three contrasting terroirs of Champagne; the Sezannaris, the Bars coast and the Vitryat coast, and maximising this diversity to bring out the best in each of the estate's vintages, The Marcoult family invite you to discover the fruits of their imagination.
