Why it matters
The producer
At Champagne Marc Hébrart, Mareuil terroir comes before grape variety. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay taste first of Mareuil, before varietal expression. Marc Hébrart founded the estate in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, and the estate joined Club Trésors de Champagne in 1985.
Place and vineyards
Where the wines begin
The estate's address is 16 Quai du Moulin in Aÿ-Champagne, while the founding village is Mareuil-sur-Aÿ. Mareuil is the primary terroir focus. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay taste first of Mareuil, so the village supplies the first sensory frame before the grape's own character arrives.
Wines to know
