The Making of AMME Chardonnay Marc Augustin Champagne

AMME, the name of this cuvée, is the acronym for the 4 members of the Augustin family: Arthur, Maxence, and their two parents, Marc and Emmanuelle.

Crafted solely from Chardonnay, the AMME cuvée comes from the Premier Cru terroir of Vertus, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs. This terroir, characterized by its clay-limestone soils, brings great minerality and freshness to the wine. Committed to biodynamic viticulture, Marc Augustin works according to the lunar phases and natural principles, with absolute respect for the vine and its environment.

This cuvée is non-dosed to allow the grapes and terroir to express themselves fully. Fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts from the lees of the previous year, without filtration or added sulfur.

Aging on the lees gives the AMME cuvée a beautiful aromatic complexity and a balanced texture. This blanc de blancs displays remarkable vivacity.
