The Jacques Selosse Millésime 2002 is a rare vintage expression of Champagne from the esteemed Anselme Selosse. This vintage is a Blanc de Blancs, utilising Chardonnay from Premier Crus, including Avize. The wine undergoes fermentation with native yeasts in French oak, often showing oxidative characteristics. Following secondary fermentation in magnum, it undergoes extended ageing on its lees, typically exceeding eight years. Bottled with minimal dosage, it showcases distinct minerality and complexity, revealing notes of citrus, brioche and a nuanced, savoury finish.

A total turn on, the 2002 Extra-Brut Grand Cru Millesime is one of the great wines of this vintage. Exotic, ripe and totally flashy, the 2002 bursts from the glass with massive layers of fruit. Honey, spices, tangerine, nectarine, flowers and mint all come to life in this huge, vivid Champagne. Waves of rich, tropical infused fruit supported by veins of saline minerality flow through to the voluptuous, huge finish. This is a stunning wine from Anselme Selosse. Ideally, the 2002 needs a few years for some of the baby fat to drop off, but it is pretty fabulous today. The overt richness bears more than a passing resemblance to Montrachet, from the Chassagne side. Disgorgement date: February 23, 2012. Antonio Galloni1st October 2012
