Is organic champagne the future? Champagne Telmont has a dream and they aim to have 100% of Champagne Telmont’s wine grower partners certified in organic agriculture by 2031.
We are stoked to witness the Singapore launch of Maison Telmont’s groundbreaking organic Champagne, Réserve de la Terre. The event featured an exclusive luncheon at Open Farm Community with President of Maison Telmont alongside an engaging panel discussion on sustainability.
“There will be a before and after Réserve de la Terre. This cuvée is proof by example that it is possible to go further than just respecting biodiversity. We can also combine organic and excellence by doing away with herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, and other synthetic fertilisers, In the name of Mother Nature.” — Ludovic du Plessis, President of Maison Telmont.
Champagne Telmont’s Réserve de la Terre is a refined expression of craftsmanship. It offers a captivating blend of 66% Chardonnay and 34% Meunier. This exquisite cuvée presents a delicate gold hue with subtle reflections of pistachio green, hinting at the elegance within.
On the nose, expect a harmonious bouquet of fresh almonds, violet, and mirabelle plum. This leads to a palate enriched by vibrant candied lemon and the creamy complexity of almond. Disgorged in 2021, this champagne is beautifully complemented by indulgent pairings such as black truffle. It’s safe to say it elevates any occasion with its sophisticated flavour profile.
Let’s raise a toast and celebrate the fact that Réserve de la Terre marks a new era for Champagne! Crafted entirely from organic grapes and free from herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, and synthetic fertilisers. It’s a lively, radiant expression of Maison Telmont’s commitment to the future of our planet.
You can now find Réserve de la Terre at top restaurants and bars across Singapore. This includes Singapore’s flagship Telmont bar, Bayside, and the Lion City’s first sustainable urban farm and restaurant, Open Farm Community.
Fun fact: Did you know that Hollywood celebrity Leonardo DiCaprio is a proud investor of the champagne house?
“With this new cuvée Réserve de la Terre, Telmont continues to demonstrate the benefits of organic farming for the soil, the winegrowers, and the wine itself. It’s the taste of the future.” — Leonardo DiCaprio.
