Winery Presentation VIGNERON À PIERRY THREE GENERATION HENRI SÉLÈQUE Henri SELEQUE, Jean-Marc's grandfather, a native of Poland, arrived with his father in France in 1925. He ran a farm with his wife Francoise Bagnost for many years. His son Richard, wanted to get involved in wine, so he planted the family’s first vines in Pierry and Moussy in 1965. He sold his first bottles in 1969 thanks to the cooperative of Pierry, whose president is none other than his father-in-law Jean Bagnost. RICHARD SÉLÈQUE Richard SELEQUE, Jean-Marc's father began producing his own champagne in the 1970s. He outfitted his operation with a press, tanks, barrels, etc. Wishing to master all the stages of champagne production, he even bought his own bottling and disgorging production line. He is a true technician who still today brings all his expertise to the / THE PHILOSOPHY / THE STYLE / THE MUSIC / FIND US FIND MUSIC / THE THE STYLE/ / PHILOSOPHY THE / vineyard as well as to the cellar. JEAN-MARC SÉLÈQUE THE WINERY Jean-Marc SELEQUE arrived to the property in 2008, and took over vinification. He has since shifted viticultural practices towards a more precise expression of terroir. His approach to wine is constantly evol- ving while maintaining a spirit of authenticity. In 2015, with his wife, Oriane SELEQUE, they build a new winery.

  • The History Today
    TheDelamotte History is a Champagne house more than 250 years old (it is the sixth oldest Champagne house) founded in Reims in 1760 by François Delamotte, a vineyard owner. He and other Champagne producers were the creators of a tradition based on quality. Their modus operandi, far from being viewed as quaint, earned them a place in the Encyclopedia of Physiocrates. Their practices have been used as a model and a paradigm by other businesses due to their progressive outlook and insistence on quality. They were truly modern-minded people. Their masterpiece – the wines – continue to be recreated anew each year and the house of Delamotte is a prime example of the traditions of quality they embody. Alexandre Delamotte brought the cellars, caves and offices of the House of Delamotte to one beautiful mansion at the end of the 18th century. In 1828, his brother, Nicolas Louis Delamotte, also known as the Chevalier Delamotte Barrachin, a former Chevalier de Malte and President of the Chamber of Commerce of Reims, assumed management of the House of Delamotte. In this tenure with the Chamber of Commerce, Nicolas was well known for hosting spectacular events, namely the coronation of France’s last King, Charles X. Serge Chapuis The House was sold to the Lanson family in the 1830’s, who later started producing a Lanson label. It was eventually acquired by Marie-Louise de Nonancourt, née Lanson, in the period between the two World Wars. In 1927, Marie-Louise made the decision to transfer the activities of the house of Delamottte to Mesnil-sur-Oger.

  • CHAMPAGNE Welcome Visitors
    © Lonely Planet Publications 354 Champagne CHAMPAGNE CHAMPAGNE Known in Roman times as Campania, meaning ‘plain’, Champagne is a largely agricultural region and is celebrated around the world for the sparkling wines that have been produced here for more than three centuries. According to French law, only bubbly originating from this region – grown in designated areas (now being expanded to meet growing demand), then aged and bottled according to the strictest of rules – can be labelled as Champagne. The production of this prestigious sparkling wine takes place mainly in two départements: Marne, whose metropolis is the ‘Coronation City’ of Reims, and the less prestigious (though increasingly respected) Aube, whose préfecture (departmental capital) is the ancient and picturesque city of Troyes, home to several exceptional museums and entire streets lined with half-timbered houses. The town of Épernay, 30km to the south of Reims, is the de facto capital of Champagne (the drink, that is) and is the best place to head for dégustation (tasting session). The Champagne Route wends its way through the region’s diverse vineyards, taking visitors from one picturesque – and prosperous – wine-growing village to the next. A number of name-brand maisons (literally ‘houses’, meaning Champagne producers) have achieved international renown, but much of the region’s liquid gold is made by almost 5000 small- scale vignerons (wine makers) in 320-odd villages, many of whose family-run facilities welcome visitors.

  • Authority, Marriage, and Politics in Late-Medieval France
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of the Liberal Arts PERSUADING THE POLITY: AUTHORITY, MARRIAGE, AND POLITICS IN LATE-MEDIEVAL FRANCE A Dissertation in French and Women’s Studies by Elizabeth L. Kinne © 2013 Elizabeth L. Kinne Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2013 The dissertation of Elizabeth L. Kinne was reviewed and approved* by the following: Norris J. Lacy Edwin Erle Sparks Professor (Emeritus) of French and Medieval Studies Dissertation Advisor Co-Chair of Committee Bénédicte Monicat Professor of French and Women’s Studies Head of the Department of French and Francophone Studies Co-Chair of Committee Christine Clark-Evans Associate Professor of French, Women’s Studies, and African and African-American Studies Jean-Claude Vuillemin Professor of French Robert R. Edwards Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of English and Comparative Literature * Signatures are on file in the Graduate School Kinne ii Abstract Persuading the polity: Authority, marriage, and politics in late-medieval France In the later Middle Ages, texts on marriage proliferated, either works of conduct meant to make women good wives or more general reflections addressed to a wide spectrum of medieval society. These multiple and contradictory discourses regarding matrimony performed a variety of functions beyond attempting to regulate a household or persuade the audience of the worthiness, or lack thereof, of the institution. They are displays of power that seek to impose an idealized vision of society and one’s authority over others.
