Wednesday, December 31, 2014 - The Initiale certainly develops a lot of character if just given some rest in the cellar. Tonight it is certainly singing from the glass. The Selosse hallmarks all reveal themselves with some time in the glass. Classical red baked apples combined with minerals, citrus tones and rich toast, just adorable. The palate adds to the nose with a brilliant texture, balanced acidity and a creamy velvety mousse. The length on the finish lasts some 45 seconds. There is a lightness emerging at the back-end of the palate providing an elegant balance to the overall power. Without doubt this wine has a great personality, expressive, massive and powerful, yet balanced and elegant. (disgorged September 2012)
