Champagne Olivier Marteaux

2018 Champagne AOC Réserve Brut

This 2018 Réserve Brut reflects the mosaic of the estate’s forty parcels and the interplay of its grape varieties, predominantly Pinot Meunier, with 40% reserve wine to maintain consistency across vintages. The nose offers bright, precise notes of lemon curd, quince, and brioche, while the palate is lively, showing fine, persistent bubbles, orchard and stone fruits, subtle citrus, and a mineral backbone.
