Sapience is a special project that Benoit Marguet started before he was able to farm his own family vineyards organically. He wanted to make organic wine, so he teamed up with what he thought were the best organic growers in Champagne. Sapience is a blend of Chardonnay from David Leclepart, Pinot Meunier from Vincent Laval, and Pinot Noir from Benoit Lahaye. The Sapience project began with the 2006 vintage, and Marguet had converted to organics and biodynamics by 2009, but he has continued to do it every year since. The technical winemaking is similar to the other top Marguet wines in that it is barrel fermented with native yeasts, minimal or no added sulfur, no dosage. It is really an exceptional champagne and has been given every care possible in terms of the way it is grown and made.
