Cuvée Marguerite 2025 is an aromatic white cuvée from Tom Lubbe made from Muscat d'Alexandrie, Muscat ? Petits Grains and Macabeu. The grapes come from older vineyards on the schist and marl soils of France's Roussillon. Peach, apricot, citrus peel and pronounced floral aromatics dominate the nose. On the palate the wine is dry, juicy and pleasantly structured, with gentle spice and a slightly bitter finish. The Muscat varieties give it a striking bouquet, but thanks to its fresh acidity it never feels heavy or overly aromatic. Whole bunches undergo a short skin maceration and ferment spontaneously together. The wine then ages on its lees in large wooden barrels, without filtration, fining or added sulphites. An excellent partner for fish, seafood, lightly spiced dishes or bolder cheeses.

In 2001, New Zealand native Tom Lubbe founded the Domaine Matassa winery in the southernmost region of France, on the border with Spain. In the Roussillon region, he grows the typical varieties of this region: Macabeu, Grenache Gris, Carignan and Grenache. All this at an altitude of 450 meters above sea level and with a very low production of around 3,500 kg per hectare. Everything is processed by hand. Apart from a small amount of SO2 used after fermentation, no other additives are added to the wines.

Since 2003, they have been farming in a biodynamicbiodynamic regime. Tom Lubbe recently moved the winery to the village of Montner, about 10 kilometers to Calce, but the vineyards have of course remained in their original location.
