Benoit Marguet Sapience Premier Cru 2014
Critic tasting note: (2014 vintage)
"This is super-elegant and has the silkiness and refinement that we associate with prestige cuvee Champagnes, but these qualities are combined with a flintiness that is rare in this category. I love the lemon curd and tart au citron character, but even this needs time to open up. Enormously concentrated and equally subtle on the creamy yet very focused palate. Staggeringly fresh finish. A cuvee of 50% chardonnay, 25% pinot noir and 25% pinot meunier. Disgorged in March 2023. Drink or hold." - James Suckling
