Description
What kind of wine it is
Selosse Pajon Champagne Souvenir Brut is a Champagne produced using the Traditional Method that elegantly expresses the unique characteristics of its terroir. It is created from a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, presenting a bright, pale golden yellow colour enlivened by a fine perlage with greenish highlights. On the nose, it opens discreetly before intensifying with notes of white peach and vanilla. On the palate, it is full and broad, supported by a pleasant acidity that leads to a long, rounded finish, making it perfect as an aperitif or paired with starters.
Where it comes from
This wine originates in France, in the historic commune of Avize, at the heart of the Champagne region. The vineyards are meticulously tended by the Selosse Pajon winery, led by Jerome and Corinne. The grapes come from historic plots inherited from their great-grandfather, located in a highly prestigious position and bordering the renowned vineyards of Anselme Selosse. This unique geographical context defines the character of the production, allowing the nuances of the local soil to be faithfully expressed.
How it is produced
The cuvée is crafted following the strict steps of the Traditional Method. The slow prise de mousse ensures the development of a persistent perlage and an extremely fine bubble. The Brut dosage shapes a clean and balanced flavour profile, preserving the wine’s natural harmony. Thanks to meticulous care at every stage of vinification, this Champagne displays remarkable ageing potential, capable of maturing beautifully in the cellar for between five and ten years.
