2006 Marguet Sapience Premier Cru Extra Brut Champagne
Sapience is Marguet’s new luxury cuvee and by all accounts is the first Prestige Champagne to be certified organic.
Excellent creamy white mousse showing very good hold which once dissipated reveals a straw coloured base wine. Exceptionally fine bead showing excellent persistence. Sniffing reveals a bouquet of pear and citrus notes intermingling with yeast lees and baked bread followed by some brioche and light toast. The palate has a refined structure yet also quite rich possessing mouthfilling flavours of baked bread, yeast lees, pear and citrus followed by some nutty cashew and light toastiness. Clean crisp dry finish with a creamy like mouthfeel. Superb length and persistence with very long aftertaste of baked bread, yeast lees, citrus, brioche and light nutty cashew. Very Limited Stocks.
Cellar 5-6 years (2018-2019).
Alc 12.5%
