Jacques Selosse is a cult producer in Champagne, the Top of the Top. A name that grows bigger and bigger every year thanks to its unparalleled style and attention (the real one) for the environment, which is then reflected on the end customer.

The company consists of only 7 hectares, with natural and biodynamic agriculture, but included in some of the best Grand Crus in all of Champagne between Avize, Cramant, Oger , Ay and Ambonnay, elective homelands, the latter two, of Pinot Noir.

Jacques and his son Anselme began making wine independently from the family grapes in 1974, once given to the few large Maisons throughout the region, starting to develop a style that quickly became a reference model for many vignerons.

In the vineyard any form of chemistry is repudiated while in the cellar the alcoholic and malolactic fermentations occur spontaneously with only native yeasts and the liqueur d’expedition is practically made from grape must.
