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

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

The range is organized around Mareuil terroir and Grand Cru vineyard sites. Grand Cru identifies Champagne's highest village classification. The listed sites are Aÿ, Avize, Chouilly, Oiry, Cramant and Louvois.

Rosé Brut NV is a rosé cuvée in Brut, non-vintage format. It brings a pale rosé style into a range built around Mareuil and sites with Grand Cru classification.

In The Glass

Rosé Brut NV is pale in color. Crushed red berry fruit leads the aroma, followed by white pepper and bright floral top notes. As a Brut Champagne, it is made in a dry sparkling style, while the rosé color comes from red grape contact or blending, depending on the method.

A Bottle To Understand It

Rosé Brut NV is the first bottle to choose. Its label gives three concrete facts at once: rosé, Brut and NV. The bottle places the estate's rosé style alongside its Mareuil-centered approach and wider Grand Cru vineyard holdings.

Final Word

Champagne Marc Hébrart begins in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ and puts Mareuil terroir before varietal expression. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay provide the grapes, while the estate's vineyard holdings extend into Grand Cru sites.
