93 Points

Wednesday, May 1, 2024 - To Tony (La Grange Park, IL): Disgorged April 25, 2023, 1.33 g/L dosage. You know what, I have to say that this bottle didn't live up to my previous experiences with this wine. I don't know if it's because this is a very fresh bottle (probably because it is). There's certainly a lot to like here -- the crispness and brightness, with just the slightest suggestion of red fruit. But this is missing the more oxidative, chewy mineral texture that I have come to expect. This bottling has always been a bit of a weird wine in the Selosse stable, as it always comes across far less oxidative than all the other bottlings. And despite my seemingly negative comments here, this is still a marvelously delicious bottle of champagne.
