Version Originale

Version Originale is the entry point to the world of Jacques Selosse and a statement at the same time: an extra brut blanc de blancs from the grand cru of Avize, the heartland of chardonnay in the Côte des Blancs. It ages for seven years in the cellar and comes to market only in limited quantity. The fruit carries the wine, complemented by spice.

On the nose you find green apple, tarte Tatin, hazelnut and marzipan, with ginger, nutmeg and curry. On the palate it is powerful, saline and distinctly mineral, with a long, fine finish. This is a champagne for purists, with a character of its own. Serve it at 10 to 12 degrees in a large white wine glass, ideally as an aperitif with refined starters.
