The story of Telmont Res De La Terre

Telmont was founded in 1912 in Damery, near Épernay, by the grower Henri Lhôpital, in the years after the 1911 Champagne riots. The Lhôpital family ran it for four generations, with Bertrand and Pascale Lhôpital in charge from 1999, and Rémy Cointreau took a majority stake in October 2020.

Réserve de la Terre is the house's manifesto cuvée, made entirely from certified organic grapes. Telmont works more than 80 hectares including its partner growers, about 70 per cent of them organic or in conversion, and aims to have all of it organic and regenerative by 2031. It is also the first Champagne house to earn Regenerative Organic Certified status for its organic vineyards. The house has stopped using clear bottles, gift boxes and air freight, and the house keeps its dosage low compared with an average brut.

Serve it at about 8 degrees in a tulip-shaped glass rather than a flute, which gives the aromas room. The house suggests black truffle as a match, and its dry style also works with salted almonds, soft-rind cheese or a plain roast chicken.
