Marteaux Gullaume Indigene Brut Dosaggio Zero

Guillaume Marteaux’s L’Indigène is a Brut Nature Champagne (Zero Dosage) that focuses entirely on the authenticity of the Marne Valley terroir. A blend dominated by Meunier (approximately 60%), complemented by Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The Meunier lends the area’s typical fruity roundness, contrasted by the total absence of sugar.

On the nose: Very expressive and clean. Notes of yellow apple, white peach, and citrus zest stand out, with an undercurrent of bread crust and a distinct chalky minerality.

On the palate: The attack is taut and vibrant. Being a Zero Dosage, the palate is dry, almost sharp, yet balanced by the fruit’s pulp. The finish is savory and refreshing.
