 At the heart of the vineyard in Villers-Marmery, a village south of the Montagne de Reims, you will discover our family farm which has been going on for 5 generations. It is with passion that we cultivate our vineyards in the communes of Villers-Marmery - premier cru and Verzy - grand cru.
Socrates and Yvonne, Sadi and Simone, Michel and Nycol, Franck and Christine and Florien and Cindy…. In the Malots, the love of the vine and wine is passed down from generation to generation.
Since 2004, in order to protect the environment, we have implemented new viticultural techniques: ploughing our vineyard, no herbicides; using organic fertilizers, protecting biodiversity, etc. In 2014, we received the High Environmental Value Label as a level 3, which has dedicated 10 years of ecological efforts. This is only one step in the strategy of preserving our terroir, our objective being to work in an entirely organic way. We started our conversion to organic viticulture on our Pinots Noirs since 2017 and we spend the whole of our vineyard next year."
Beyond environmental protection, we want to ensure that our wines express the magic of our terroir, which benefits from a dirty soil.
The vintage vintage 2012 is a perfect translation of our best harvest. This vintage, 100% Chardonnay from Villers-Marmery is made by selecting grapes from our oldest vines. This white wine, with an elegant vinosity, benefits from a traditional vinification of a year in oak lightning, without malolactic fermentation, a maturing of 5 years on lees and a year of rest in our cellars after disgorging, without gluing. The nose is very expressive, one finds an aromatic power where mix the white fruits with stones with a slight hint of honey and spices.
Our conversion to organic viticulture on our pinot noir will give birth to new cuvées: a Blanc de Noir BIO, grand cru de Verzy vinified in an ovoid tank in raw concrete, and also a Rosé de Saignée BIO.
And, soon, a new 100% Chardonnay wine from an oak cask, raised in Solera from a place called «les Sous la Ville».
