Jacques Selosse Lieux-Dits Sous le Mont

Technical Details

Tasting Profile

Sous le Mont is one of the most sought-after single-vineyard expressions in the Jacques Selosse Lieux-Dits collection, sourced from a prized Blanc de Blancs terroir in the Côte des Blancs. Anselme Selosse’s signature oxidative, Burgundy-inspired approach yields a Champagne of extraordinary depth and precision: toasted hazelnuts, warm brioche, and preserved lemon open onto a saline mineral core, with notes of ripe orchard fruit, aged cheese rind, and a long, tension-driven finish. A benchmark of grower Champagne philosophy.

Food Pairing

Ideal alongside aged Comté or Beaufort cheese, where the wine’s oxidative nuttiness and saline minerality find a natural counterpart. Equally compelling with pan-seared Dover sole finished with lemon butter and capers, echoing the Champagne’s citrus brightness and chalky depth.
