Tarlant 家族於 1687 年，由 Pierre Tarlant 首次在 Marne Valley 種植葡萄樹。1928 年，Louis Adrien Tarlant 生產了家族的第一款香檳，至今經歷 12 代人的努力。Champagne Tarlant 是獨立酒農香檳 (RM - Recoltant Manipulant)，這意味着他們自產自釀，小規模生產，並獲不少星級餐廳的青睞。
Marne Valley 土壤多元化，加上鄰近 Marne River，令 Tarlant 香檳擁有複雜的風土特徵。此外， 在釀造過程中，他們精心運用橡木桶，這令香檳更加豐滿、濃郁，展現出獨特的風味層次。
值得一提的是，Tarlant 家族在葡萄栽培上，採用環保的方式，致力於可持續發展，進一步提升香檳的品質。這款 cuvée 由第 11 代釀酒師 Jean-Mary Tarlant 監製，充分體現了家族的傳承與對品質的堅持。

The Tarlant family traces their winegrowing history back to 1687, when Pierre Tarlant first cultivated grapevines in the Marne Valley. In 1928, Louis Adrien Tarlant produced the family’s first estate-bottled champagne, and since then there have been twelve successive generations of Tarlants producing wine at their estate in the village of Oeuilly. Today the estate is in the hands of Benoît Tarlant, who has been making wine here since 1999.
The diversity of soils in this area of the Marne Valley results in a complex signature of terroir that is strongly reflected in Tarlant’s wines. These are ample, full-flavored champagnes, influenced by their close proximity to the Marne River, as well as by Tarlant’s sophisticated use of oak for vinification.
This cuvée was produced by Jean-Mary Tartant, 11th generation of winemakers, with environmentally friendly vine cultivation.

Tasting Notes:
(Gault & Millau's rating: 94 points)
Made mainly from Chardonnay, this cuvée is produced without malolactic fermentation. The tasting opens with a golden color studded with a myriad of extremely fine bubbles. A nose of yellow fruit, quince paste and pastry notes is followed, after aeration, by subtle, complex aromas of wilted flowers. At nearly 20 years of age, this bottle is at its best, with the complexity, richness and flavors that only time can bring. At its peak.
