When discussing TELMONT, the keyword “environment” cannot be ignored. The maison’s slogan “In the name of Mother Nature” serves as the guiding principle for all their activities. Because “excellent wine is a gift from nature,” they believe the land where grapes grow must be protected. This philosophy of TELMONT continues to this day, and their activities attract attention from around the world.

Currently, only about 4% of vineyards in the Champagne region have organic certification. Among them, TELMONT has approximately 83% of their vineyards harvested in 2022 under organic certification, with a goal to convert 100% of their own vineyards to organic farming by 2025. They continue to practice thorough grape cultivation without herbicides, pesticides, and chemical fertilizers, and will undoubtedly continue to pursue more natural farming methods in the future.

TELMONT is also a maison that continues traditional methods with unwavering dedication, famous for champagne-making that maximizes the benefits of the land where grapes grow. Grapes are hand-picked, with 120,000 people participating in the harvest to carefully select only the finest grapes for production. As they say, “wine comes from grapes,” and TELMONT’s quality is maintained precisely because of these excellent grapes.

The “people” who support TELMONT are also the pride of the maison. First to know is TELMONT’s cellar master, Bertrand Lhôpital. He is one of the founding family members of TELMONT and inherited the position of cellar master from his father in 1999. While one might imagine a cellar master confined to the winery, he personally visits the vineyards to constantly check the condition of the grapes.

The cuvée prepared for the “Champagne Plan” is “Réserve de la Terre (Organic),” a radiant and vibrant champagne made from organically grown grapes, completely free of herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, and synthetic fertilizers. Organic champagne is only possible when wine is produced without any use of herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, or chemical fertilizers. In the name of Mother Nature, carefully protecting our vineyards is TELMONT’s manifesto. This vibrant cuvée, bathed in the energy and brilliance of the sun, blends wines from three exceptional harvest years in the Champagne region, resulting in a finish where the vitality of the terroir can be felt. Please enjoy the world of TELMONT with “Réserve de la Terre (Organic)” in hand.
