Origin

Produced in the Champagne region of France, Jean Vesselle is a family-owned house located in the village of Vertus, renowned for its chalky soils and high-quality grapes.

Variety

The NV Brut Réserve is typically a blend of the three classic Champagne grape varieties:

  • Pinot Noir
  • Chardonnay
  • Pinot Meunier

Production

The wine is crafted using traditional Champagne methods (Méthode Champenoise), involving a secondary fermentation in the bottle to develop fine bubbles. The blend is aged on lees to enhance complexity and texture before disgorgement and dosage to achieve the Brut style.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Pale golden color with fine, persistent bubbles.
  • Aroma: Fresh citrus, green apple, white flowers, and subtle brioche notes.
  • Palate: Crisp and lively with balanced acidity, flavors of lemon zest, pear, and a hint of almond, finishing clean and refreshing.

Food pairings

NV Brut Réserve pairs well with a variety of dishes, including:

  • Seafood such as oysters, shrimp, and smoked salmon
  • Light appetizers and canapés
  • Soft cheeses like Brie and Camembert
  • Fresh salads and mild poultry dishes
