Telmont Réserve Brut Champagne – Organic, Sustainable

Telmont Réserve Brut Champagne is one of the most compelling “modern luxury” Champagnes on the market—delivering classic Champagne quality with a forward-thinking, all-natural philosophy. It offers bright citrus, orchard fruit, and refined brioche, with a purity and balance that consistently overdelivers for the price. Backed by a strong sustainability mission and the involvement of Leonardo DiCaprio, this is a Champagne that resonates both on the palate and with today’s values-driven consumer.

Origins & Craftsmanship

Produced by Champagne Telmont in Damery, Telmont has become a leader in organic and environmentally responsible Champagne production.

The house philosophy is built around:

• Certified organic vineyards (with a goal of 100% organic estate production)
• Elimination of herbicides and synthetic chemicals
• Reduced environmental footprint, including lighter bottles and minimal packaging
• A commitment to “In the Name of Mother Nature”—a long-term sustainability initiative

The Réserve Brut is a blend of:

• Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier
• Incorporating a meaningful proportion of reserve wines for depth and consistency
• Aged on lees to develop texture and complexity

Unlike many mass-market Champagnes, Telmont emphasizes minimal intervention and transparency, resulting in a wine that feels cleaner, more precise, and terroir-driven.
