V.O. Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay
2004 base
Disgorged 2010
A very fresh nose of apricots, nuts, spice and brioche. Very powerful when it hits your palate. Apples, pears, and lemon zest battle for supremacy of your taste buds. Prominent acidic bite — 4 months ago

Substance Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay
18-8, Disgorged in 2023. Holy shit, this is bloody amazing!!!! The nose is intensely elegant. Honey brioche, baked apples and spices. Bubbles are fine and sexy. On the palate, it's super - complex, layered and lengthy. And the fact it's only Disgorged last year...wow! My first Selosse. I now know why it's so hyped and I cannot disagree. Chapeau. — 2 months ago

Brut Rosé Champagne Blend
2020 Disgorgment is utter perfection, a particular favorite, exploding with infinite depth of red berry fruit and chalky minerality with a vibrant, chiseled palate with singular texture and a finish that keeps on going. VO base with a touch of still Pinot from Francis Egly. Nothin’ like it. — 3 months ago

Medium deep ruby , garnet . Quite rich and deep fruits , with some dusty herbal elements . On the palate also quiet ripe and rich , sweetly fruited . Dark cherry , with some summer fruits , blackberry . Good balance however , with sweet tannin and balanced acidity . Still showing lots of fruit , but drinking now but can can last well , probably improve over the next 5 years or so . — 4 days ago
