What distinguishes the winemaking style of Champagne Jacques Selosse from other Champagne houses?
Champagne Jacques Selosse stands radically apart from conventional Champagne practices. The juices are vinified plot by plot in 228-litre Burgundian barrels, with spontaneous fermentations using the estate's indigenous yeasts, and ageing of 8 to 12 months on fine lees with regular stirring. The result is Champagnes of an inimitable style, playing on fine oxidative touches, with superb chalky and saline notes, great vinosity and a striking freshness. This truly pioneering approach has profoundly transformed the vision of terroir Champagne.
