Champagne Soliste Meunier, JM Seleque 2019
JM Seleque
JM Sélèque is a family run grower domaine based in Pierry, just outside Épernay, now led by Jean Marc Sélèque. The estate works across more than forty parcels in Pierry, Moussy, Épernay, and the Côte des Blancs, farming Chardonnay, Meunier, and Pinot Noir on chalk, clay, and flint soils. Vineyards are cultivated organically, with careful attention to soil health and the expression of each plot. Jean Marc focuses on capturing the personality of each vineyard while maintaining a consistent house style defined by precision, balance, and clarity. Fermentations are carried out parcel by parcel, with extensive use of oak, reserve wines and long lees ageing to build texture and complexity without sacrificing freshness. Over the last decade, JM Sélèque has become one of the most highly regarded grower estates in Champagne, known for wines that combine technical precision with real vineyard transparency and energy.
Soliste Meunier is a single variety, single vintage Champagne dedicated entirely to the character and precision of Meunier, a grape that Jean Marc Sélèque treats with far greater seriousness than is traditionally seen in the region. Sourced from carefully selected parcels in the Vallée de la Marne, the wine is designed to showcase Meunier’s ability to deliver both generosity and mineral tension when farmed meticulously and vinified with restraint. The 2019 vintage brought concentration and ripeness balanced by vibrant acidity, giving the wine both immediacy and structure. Vinification takes place parcel by parcel, with élevage designed to preserve vineyard expression while building texture and depth through extended lees contact. The wine shows ripe pear, yellow apple and citrus peel, layered with white flowers, brioche and subtle smoky mineral notes. The palate is broad yet focused, with fine mousse, bright acidity and a long, saline finish that highlights the depth, precision and understated power of top quality Meunier.
