    nose - burnt sugar, liqueresque
    mouth - rich and aged, hints of whisky but nevermind that as the riproaring acidity is here to smash your face. unique in its ability to simultaneously be advanced and fresh. How does he do that??

    March 9, 2024 - Feb 2016 disgorgement. Stellar. Excellent depth. Lovey seam of acidity to balance the weight. Grows more complex in the glass over 30/40 minutes. To my taste these are at peak balance between fruit, age, and acidity.

    January 2, 2024 - Beau cadeau reçu d'un bon fournisseur, merci Didier!
    Super vineux et bien vif.
    Des notes de brioches, de salin, de citrons
    et de coing.
    Long et bien vivifiant, j'ai adoré!

    December 23, 2023 - Nose: banoffee, fig, balsamic, dark chocolate, ripe pear, nuts, grappa, chestnut
    Notes: disgorged in 2018. The clean and distinctive minerality coupled with the signature oxidative nose simply shows how precise this Domaine can be when presenting their wines. A really bone dry palate followed by this amount of intensity without a full body is somewhat quite contradictory and amazing at the same time, this wine is far from big or round and if anything it's quite lean. Although this may not be my favorite Selosse cuvee but I surely am able to appreciate this style and love every single sip of it. A couple more years will make this even better.
