“What a great find!”

“The three Champagne grape varieties (40% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir) come together in this brut based on the 2018 harvest, which delighted our tasters. Its strengths? A complex profile, blending citrus with riper, more developed notes (candied fruit, brioche, almond, mirabelle plum…), a clean, harmonious, and long finish, superbly fresh.” (Le Guide Hachette 2024). The excellence of Maison Nathalie Sélèque!

About the wine:

The three Champagne grape varieties (40% Chardonnay and an equal amount of Pinot Noir) come together in this brut based on the 2018 harvest, which delighted our tasters. Its strengths? A complex profile blending citrus notes with riper, more developed nuances (candied fruit, brioche, almond, mirabelle plum…), a clean, harmonious, and long finish, superbly fresh.

About the estate:

The daughter of Jean Sélèque, a winegrower from Pierry who passed away in 2015, Nathalie Sélèque has been managing the family estate since 2008. In 2020, she launched her own label while retaining the one bearing her father’s name. The wines are produced by Cogevi, the oldest cooperative in Champagne, located in Aÿ and Oger.

A bit too expensive for what it offers, in my opinion.

An elegant, flawless wine. The almond notes are (too) prominent. A fairly lively and well-balanced wine, but not to my taste.

Review by Mr. SEBASTIEN R. Posted on May 2, 2024

It's decent, but far from Favorite Hachette Favorite . The bubbles aren't very well integrated and tend to overwhelm the palate. The wine is pleasant but lacks precision and balance for my taste.
