Unlike most Blanc de Blancs Marteaux Guillaume does not originate on soils that are known for their Chardonnay growth. Instead Le Métèque was grown on traditionally Pinot Meunier plots in Bonneil and Charly-sur-Marne (Vallée de la Marne).

Fine bubbles, a golden colour with slightly green reflections, a fine and mineral nose, aromas gourmet, powerful and fine citrus fruits will delicately fill your mouth. Clay-limestone soils and sand compounds bring it matter and body, while in finesse, without weighing it down.
