What's good about Selosse is that even when you know the universe, you're always surprised.
Very particular peaty nose, sensation of smelling whiskey, then orange peels.
The palate has an oxidative profile, but the peaty character comes through very strongly, as if the wine had been aged in whiskey barrels. Then, the juice, intense and creamy in texture, unfurls a whole complex array, sometimes pastry cream, sometimes candied fruit. It’s racy with a natural presence. The finish coats everything in its path with delicious chalky notes over a beautiful vibrant length.
Excellent champagne!
