In a great place right now. Pop corn nose, rich, finessed and intense palate. Deep and beautiful. — 8 years ago

The best Clos de Tart I've tried. Boring and too soft at first, after 2 hours it began kicking in — bright and hedonistic, utterly delicious and long. Yes, yes and yes. — 8 years ago

Great wine, very true to its terroir — you could see the classic RSV notes all the way here. Feminine, elegant, finessed and very gentle. Darkest of cherries, stewed strawberries, autumn forest on a sunny day after rain. Love it! — 8 years ago

I couldn't get over the massive oak wall here, but maybe after a decade this will open up for business. Definitely good potential, but very weak now due to the wood stank. — 8 years ago

Off vintage, this bottle didn't show up for dinner. Funky and tired. Unfortunately we were late with this CSD. — 8 years ago

Disgorged in 2010. Selosse is Selosse and I will never stop loving his wines. This one is a baby, but oh so delicious. — 8 years ago

Superb champagne. Needed time in the glass to get fully going, but it checks all the boxes — great structure, amazing palate of fresh fruit, stone, flowers and even a bit of petrol, fantastic acidity to carry it all. I was suprised to find out it was a Chardonnay dominated blend. My bet would be either Pinot Noir heavy blend or even Blanc de Noirs. Wonderful bottle! — 8 years ago

Давно смотрю на него. Видимо все-таки придётся потратиться. Хотя тут ещё и возраст добавляет красоты.

@Riddley Walker ну с 1996 сложно промахнуться в принципе. Идеальный миллезим. Я никогда такое не пробовал, но очень приятно был удивлен качеством.

Wonderful wine that is still in its deepest sleep. Needs more time to mature, but is perfectly enjoyable now. Love it! — 8 years ago
