Effervescent blanc

Gault&Millau's review 2019

Straw-yellow in color, with hints of gold and green. The nose expresses notes of spiced apple pie (cinnamon, vanilla), gingerbread and cooked yellow fruit. The bubbles are both supple and light. On the palate, sweet and bitter clash, between tarte tatin and citrus zest, and hint at a generous dosage. The finish is balanced by a touch of salinity.

Jean Sélèque

In 1966, Jean Bagnost, mayor of Pierry and founder of the village's cooperative winery, and his son-in-law Henri Sélèque began planting the first plots of vines for the company. In 1974, Jean Sélèque, son of Françoise and Henry, began tending, pruning and selling his champagne. In 2008, Jean's daughter Nathalie took over the business, launching the Jean Sélèque brand in April 2013. The vineyard comprises 5.4 hectares spread over 4 communes: Moussy, Pierry, Epernay and Boursault. The grape variety is dominated by Chardonnay (50%), followed by Pinot Meunier (40%) and Pinot Noir (10%).
