Third-generation vigneron Jean-Marc Sélèque farms these parcels with a deep respect for biodiversity, practicing organic and regenerative viticulture to capture the purity of the region’s chalky terroir. Fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged partly in oak, this cuvée is built on a perpetual reserve, adding depth and seamless integration across vintages. With a dosage of just 2 g\/L, it remains precise and crystalline, allowing the character of its old-vine Chardonnay to shine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLithe and electric, \u003cem\u003eLe Quintette\u003c\/em\u003e bursts with aromas of lemon zest, crisp pear, and white flowers, layered with delicate notes of almond and chalk. The palate is racy and structured, yet silky in its persistence, unfolding with waves of green apple, citrus pith, and a saline edge that lingers long after each sip. Its mineral-driven intensity makes it an exceptional match for oysters, crudo, or a simple plate of scallops in beurre blanc. For lovers of chiseled, terroir-driven Champagne, this is Sélèque at his most refined and expressive.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vintage 59 [V59]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31093472788515,"sku":"SF-VIN59-JMSEL-QUINT-BDB","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0044\/1208\/0163\/products\/Bottle-of-J-M-Seleque-Champagne-BdB-Extra-Brut-Le-Quintette-NV-Sparkling-Wine-Flatiron-SF.png?v=1681769150"}],"url":"https:\/\/sf.flatiron-wines.com\/collections\/april-17-2024.oembed","provider":"Flatiron SF","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
