Jacques Selosse 1er Cru Millesime 2007
Tasting Note
'On to the wines. I upset one or two of this parish by blaspheming against Jacques Selosse when I recounted how one bottle performed. I make no apologies for that. I criticize when I see fit and praise likewise, which is what I will do here. The 2007 Extra Brut Millésime Grand Cru sings like a choirboy in an empty cathedral. Limpid straw in hue, it presents a bouquet of lanolin, crème brûlée and acacia honey scents, with just a light oxidation underneath, here lending complexity. There is a slight viscosity at opening, along with fleeting glimpses of orange pith and apricot. A subtle bitter edge imparts tension on an ebullient, saline finish that lingers in the mouth. This is a brilliant Champagne and, lo and behold, unlike last time, everyone finished their glasses.'
