  May 16, 2014 - An absolutely marvelous Champagne. This bottle was disgorged late 2013 and it is of course very youthful in its impression, but it is still a truly lovely wine. The nose exhibits the classical Selosse baked apple as well as a slightly oxidized tone. There is plenty of body and tons of vivid minerals. This is a fantastic example of the Selosse style. The palate adds very nicely to the overall impression with perfect balance, a vivid mousse and a razor sharp but nicely embedded acidity. The length on the finish just goes on an on... A true masterpiece. Compared to the basic "Initiale" cuvée the VO expresses more minerality, but also a deeper and profound fruit. Without the slightest doubt a grand vin. It will be super lovely given some time in the cellar! (score is 95+)
