April 15, 2024 - Four years since my last bottle, but this was nonetheless drinking younger and fresher. Crisp, focused and complex. Delicious.

March 8, 2024 - Heater week; 3/8/2024-3/17/2024 (Chicago, IL): 06.05.23. Drinks, surprise surprise, like a young Initial, but with less of the oxidative tones and more white and yellow fruit. Very fresh and bright with plenty of palate weight here. Would be great to say that this was Selosse without the price tag, but that's not really what's happening here, is it.

February 3, 2024 - Saturday hangout at Domaine (Chicago, IL): There's a little sticker that says 18.04.21 on the label and that's all the info I have on this bottling. Tastes great though -- surprise surprise it reminds me quite a bit of Selosse Initial. Very rich and dense, with clear oak influence and weight. A bit of sweetness to counterweight the acidity and oak elements. Outstanding and impressive, but at the current price...?

December 24, 2023 - Disgorged 26.3.2022 - will leave subsequent bottles in cellar for a few years. Strong fruit for the “Selosse” style. A bit lighter touch as well?

November 25, 2023 - Bottle 2/6 (disgorged 2018). Toasted hazelnut and pine nut I would associate with Jacques Selosse Initial. After 2 hours of air, mint and other more complex flavors. Long finish. Easy 96/100 👍🏽
