At 32g of residual sugar, this demi-sec is actually quite restrained on the sweetness. The higher dosage brings out a lovely toasted spice aspect with great white orchard fruit. This is a Champagne that would be absolutely perfect with an apple gallette for dessert.

"The NV Cuvée Le Demi-Sec is laced with pear, spice, pastry and floral accents. Airy and gracious, the Demi-Sec hides its grams of dosage gracefully. This is beautifully done, and absolutely delicious. This release is 89% Chardonnay and 11% Pinot Noir, based on 2018 with reserve wines from 2017, 2016, 2013 and 2009. Dosage is 32 grams per liter."

More about A Margaine

Mathilde Margaine is the fifth generation and first woman to lead the family domaine in Villers-Marmery—basically the Chardonnay island in a sea of Pinot Noir. Her family started making wine in 1796 (yes, 1796) and today she and her dad work just 6.5 hectares with obsessive care: blocked malolactic fermentations to preserve brightness, precise plot-by-plot work, and a "Special Club" membership since 1976. These are wines that taste refreshingly pure, not trying to show off.

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
