Tuesday, July 9, 2019 - Hsien Min's Birthday Dinner (Nouri): Probably the last impressive bottle of Selosse VO I have had over the years, but this was still nevertheless a lovely champagne. It had a nice nose of yeast, a bit of biscuits, ripe red apples and just a little kiss of mineral and spice. Really attractive stuff. The palate had a nice snappy liveliness to it, with a lemony spine running through more rich Apple flavours, slightly browning this time, and than a bit of kumquat peel and just a kiss of spice leading into a detailed, minerally finish. This lacked some of the sheer awesomeness of depth, power and balance I have always found in previous bottles, but take nothing away from it - it was still a great drop, and a very nice start to the evening.
