is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
JM Sélèque’s Quintette Chardonnay 5 Terroirs NV is a beautifully composed Blanc de Blancs that showcases the unique expression of Chardonnay from five distinct terroirs across the Vallée de la Marne and the Côte des Blancs. This non-vintage Champagne offers an inviting nose of citrus zest, green apple, and white peach, layered with floral notes of acacia and subtle hints of almond and chalk. On the palate, it is precise and vibrant, revealing flavors of lemon curd, crisp pear, and a whisper of brioche, supported by a creamy mousse and refreshing acidity. The finish is long and mineral-driven, reflecting the interplay of the five terroirs that define this cuvée.
Crafted with a commitment to organic and biodynamic principles, JM Sélèque emphasizes sustainability and minimal intervention throughout the winemaking process. Grapes are hand-harvested and fermented with indigenous yeasts, and the wine is aged on lees to enhance texture and depth. By blending Chardonnay from different parcels, including Pierry, Moussy, Vertus, Dizy, and Boursault, this cuvée achieves a complex balance of richness and elegance, highlighting the diversity of its origins. A carefully measured dosage ensures harmony and finesse, allowing the natural vibrancy of the wine to shine.
Quintette is a versatile Champagne that pairs beautifully with dishes such as seared scallops, poached sole, or creamy risotto. Its freshness and complexity also make it a sophisticated aperitif for any occasion. JM Sélèque’s Quintette Chardonnay 5 Terroirs NV is a testament to the depth and character of Chardonnay in Champagne, crafted with precision and care.
