2024 Matassa VDF Blanc Cuvée Marguerite

Cuvée Marguerite is a natural wine from Matassa, a winery established in 2001 by New Zealand natives Tom Lubbe and Sam Harrop in the south of France. Named after Tom's wife Natalie's grandmother, this Vin de France blend combines Macabeu, Muscat d'Alexandrie, and Muscat Petit Grain from 50-year-old vines across three parcels. The grapes undergo whole-cluster maceration and are co-fermented in concrete before aging in 2500L foudres on the lees. The wine is unfined, unfiltered, and made with no added SO2, reflecting a chemical-free and holistic winemaking approach.
