Description
Extra brut classic method champagne, produced by J-M Seleque Champagne. A fresh and refined nose, with a citrusy opening, followed by floral and fruity aromas. 0.75 liter bottle. A sensory experience that begins with a fine and persistent perlage, then opens to a complex and inviting bouquet. The history of Maison Sélèque began in 1965, when Henri Sélèque planted his first vines. Today, the fourth generation continues to produce high-quality champagne. On the palate, it is lively, with fine bubbles and a refreshing freshness. A perfect glass for celebrating special moments or accompanying a refined aperitif.

Quickly passionate about vines, Richard, son of Henri and Françoise, studied oenology and began producing Champagne when he joined the winery in 1974.
He brought modern equipment for vine cultivation and winemaking: a digger tractor, a new press, vats, etc. As a result, the estate grew rapidly, and in the 1990s, production reached 50,000 bottles.
1995 will remain in the company's memories as the year Henri passed away. The 'Comédie' blend was created to honour him with his portrait on the metal cap. Françoise - the late Henri's wife - passed away in 2011.
The third generation arrived in 2008 - Jean-Marc joined the estate after studying wine and travelling abroad. He brought new life and a very personal approach to the creation of Champagne. Read more
