Tom Lubbe of Domaine Matassa is one of the most talked about figures in European natural wine – and for very good reason. Based in the Roussillon at the southern tip of France, close to the Spanish border, Tom farms his vineyards with a lot of care ,with some vines over a century old. His wines manage to be simultaneously complex, aromatic, and (dangerously) very drinkable.
The grapes for Marguerite see 5 to 7 days of skin maceration before spontaneous fermentation in concrete tanks. From there it’s aged on the lees in large 2,500-litre foudres and bottled with nothing added.
The result is one of our most in-demand bottles year after year,
Tasting Matassa ‘Cuvée Marguerite’ 2025
We have not yet tried this new vintage but the 2024 was Hugely aromatic and tropical yet with a delicate, almost perfumed purity. Notes of candied orange peel, lychee, honey, almonds, camomile and soft pineapple, with a lovely tea-like finish. It is just fantastic.
And it evolves beautifully in a carafe, but also nice to see the difference temperature makes to it whether you serve it fridge cold or more ambient…
Brilliant with Thai food, light fish dishes, Asian salads, or simply on its own at dusk. A beautiful, beautiful wine we are sure you will love.
