The Château de la Marquetterie, situated in the heart of the Champagne wine-growing region and owned today by Champagne Taittinger was, prior to the French Revolution, the site of village fairs and a meeting place for philosophers and authors of the “Age of Enlightenment”. Thanks to its soils and its sunny south/southwest exposure, the vineyard Les Folies, that overlooks the Château, produces Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes of exceptional quality. “Champagne de Domaine” par excellence elaborated in the style and the purest tradition of Champagne Taittinger, Les Folies de la Marquetterie evokes those special times of French history. This cuvée is produced exclusively from grapes grown at the Folies, picked after the first “green” harvest, giving the wine optimum sweetness and aromatic maturity. Only wines from the first pressing are used, each plot being vinified in small volumes and certain lots in oak casks. Les Folies de la Marquetterie is a blend of 55% Chardonnay and 45% Pinot Noir. Slow aging for 3 years in bottles brings the flavours of this champagne to perfect harmony. The colour is deep yellow with golden highlights. The bubbles are fine and delicate. The intense, highly fruity bouquet releases scents of peaches and apricot jam with subtle hints of toasted brioche and vanilla. On the palate this full-bodied, fruity and graceful wine develops dominant golden peach flavours. The finish is distinct and evocative, with light, woody notes. In all, Les Folies de la Marquetterie is a full-flavoured, harmonious champagne distinguished by its immense richness and complexity.
