Maison Jacques Selosse – The Avant-Garde of Terroir-Driven Champagne
A true Champagne icon, Maison Jacques Selosse stands at the pinnacle of excellence and audacity, redefining terroir-driven winemaking. Founded in 1959 in Avize, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs, the house underwent a radical transformation under Anselme Selosse, a pioneer of biodynamic farming and parcel-based vinification in Champagne. Today, his son Guillaume Selosse continues this legacy with the same dedication.
The estate spans 8 hectares, primarily in Grand Cru villages (Avize, Cramant, Oger), with a strong focus on Chardonnay, aiming to reveal the purest expression of terroir. In contrast to conventional Champagne methods, Jacques Selosse embraces techniques inspired by Burgundy: organic viticulture, fermentation in oak barrels, and extended aging on lees, resulting in wines of unparalleled depth and complexity.
Selosse champagnes are intensely expressive, boasting rich textures and a striking aromatic palette where minerality, ripe fruit, oxidative notes, and freshness harmonize. Iconic cuvées include Initial, an introduction to the Selosse universe, Substance, crafted through a solera system for extraordinary depth, and rare single-parcel expressions that pay tribute to exceptional terroirs.
Sought after by connoisseurs worldwide, Jacques Selosse is more than just Champagne—it’s an extraordinary sensory journey, an unmistakable signature that pushes the boundaries of the appellation and redefines the art of sparkling wine.
Palmer Collection Vintage 1985 is a very rare vintage, memory of a harvest wiped out by the terrible frosts of winter 1984 and spring 1985 but which will give at the end of a beautiful sunny summer a superb vintage with remarkable balance.
Dom Pérignon Vintage 2013 is a Champagne with explosive harmony: a marriage of intensity, controlled tensions and great contrasts. The final blend reveals a unique Dom Pérignon characteristic of this very special vintage.
Franck Bonville Pur Oger 2015 comes from 2 plots located in Oger: Les Rumigny and Les Noyerots. The terroir of Oger, Grand Cru, is made up of a part nestled in the hollow of a valley between Avize and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, where the "Les Rumigny" plot is located, and a part at the bottom of the hills on the Noyerots plateau. It is the duality of this terroir that the House...
Hommage A William Deutz Meurtet is a single-varietal (Pinot Noir) and single-terroir (Meurtet plot in Aÿ) cuvée. The Cellar Master of Maison Deutz decided to vinify this plot of Aÿ separately to highlight the nobility of the wine, the terroir and the Pinot Noir grape variety.
Henri Giraud Esprit Nature is the cuvée reflecting the House's commitment to the protection of nature and human health. This is a vision of natural wine. Its emblem, the Paper Oak, tells of the fragility of living things but also of man's ability to reconstruct it.
Chateau de Beaucastel Roussanne Vieilles Vignes is considered one of the greatest white wines in France, only 6000 bottles are produced each year. Made only from very old Roussannes vines, picked up slightly over-ripe, this Chateauneuf-du-Pape Blanc is exceptional.
The name of this climate probably comes from the distortion of the word "perreuse" (stone), the name given to the ancient Roman road whose route passed at the end of the current vineyard. The soil is structured for aging, with dense and compact clay soil resting on a limestone slab, which produces long and elegant wines.
