Friday, October 7, 2011 - This bottle disgorged n July of 2008. gorgeous wine, showed as well as any bottle of Selosse that I've ever had. Rich, and seems more so at first because the wine is oxidative in style, but with air the wine comes together and finds a perfect balance. Prominent seawater on the nose, some ripe fruit that is classic Chardonnay in character, very mineral finish. The thing that first took me to the "this wine is amazing" territory, though, was the texture. So silky and refined, so graceful and alluring, so wonderful to feel in the mouth. In the end, the wine is seamless and I think, perfect. Oxidative is actually not my favorite style of Champagne, but this is an incredibly fine version, and a compelling wine.
