Shaman 22 Grand Cru Brut Nature Marguet

The Grand cru Champagne designation is reserved for the region’s most prestigious terroirs. Only 17 villages enjoy this distinction, most of them located in the Montagne de Reims and the Côte des Blancs. The Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines are planted on south-facing slopes, rooted in Campanian chalk overlaid with clay and silt. In the winery, fermentation begins spontaneously in oak casks, without the addition of any oenological inputs. The wine is then aged on lees for eight months in seasoned barrels, without stirring. The second fermentation takes place in bottle, followed by three to four years’ ageing on laths, giving the wine its complexity and finesse.
The wine displays a beautiful pale yellow hue. The expressive, refined bouquet reveals aromas of white flowers, citrus zest and juicy pear, complemented by subtle notes of fresh hazelnut. Lively, taut and saline on the first sip, the palate offers a beautifully chiselled texture carried by an elegant bead.
