2007 Champagne Jacques Selosse Millésime Extra Brut Grand Cru

The 2007 Champagne Jacques Selosse Millésime Extra Brut Grand Cru is an exceptional and rare vintage champagne from one of the most iconic and innovative producers in the Champagne region Jacques Selosse. This wine combines the unique philosophy of Anselme Selosse with the special characteristics of the 2007 vintage.
Jacques Selosse is based in Avize, in the Côte des Blancs, this house is known for its groundbreaking and terroir-driven approach. Anselme Selosse, the visionary winemaker, introduced principles of biodynamics, low dosages, and a Burgundy-like focus on terroir, which revolutionized the world of champagne. Selosse makes champagnes that are rich, complex and intense, with a unique emphasis on texture and depth. They reflect both the vineyard and the vision of the winemaker. The 2007 vintages are known for their precision, freshness and minerality, often combined with a subtle ripeness.

The Jacques Selosse Millésime Extra Brut Champagne Grand Cru is a blend of Chardonnay (from Avize, a Grand Cru commune) and possibly a small amount of Pinot Noir. The grapes come from Grand Cru vineyards with chalky soils, which give the wine a pronounced minerality. Fermentation takes place in old Burgundy barrels, which gives the wine a subtle oxidative style. The malolactic fermentation is usually suppressed to preserve the freshness and tension in the wine.
The wine is matured on the lees (dead yeast cells) for added complexity. The Dosage is Extra Brut, with a very low sugar content (usually around 2-3 g/l), emphasising the purity of the wine.
