‼️High Demand, 99pts Jacques Selosse Substance

Considered to be one of the best growers and most influential winemakers in the world, Anselme Selosse’s innovative mark a new century of grower Champagne. Wine critics have praised him to be "among the most coveted bottle in Champagne" (Antonio Galloni), and "no champagne grower is as renowned or as influential as Anselme Selosse" (Peter Liem), Anselme believes in low yields, organic viticulture and terroir, and makes a fantastic range of champagnes in their usual styles and lieux-dits. Among the line-up, Selosse’s Substance Blanc de Blancs attracts enormous demand around the globe, which is Selosse’s first solera-style cuvee which is normally used for the production of Sherry. It creates a unique oxidative and complex character which is untypical in the region, and certainly being regarded as one of the most memorable fine wines to try in a lifetime!

As one of the outstanding Champagnes in the modern world, it’s in high demand lately and getting much harder to source. We are delighted to offer a recently disgorged parcel of Jacques Selosse Substance and let us know if you would like to take a few -

Wine Notes: 
100pts Wine Advocate (2024 Disgorged)
One of the pinnacles of the tasting with Selosse, unsurprisingly, is the NV Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Substance, a wine with the most complex making, going through four stages of maturation: from barrels to the bottle. As always, it derives from a solera created in 1986. Originally, the wine was sourced from two parcels in Avize, but today the base wine (which eventually contributes only about 4.8% to the final blend in the bottle) is produced from a selection of plots in the village. Guillaume opted to include parcels that best fit the desired balance—sometimes these will be south-facing, other times east or even north-facing sites. Muscular and multidimensional, it jumps from the glass with a bouquet of kaleidoscopic complexity, featuring notes of orange zest, spices, beeswax, toasted hazelnuts and dried fig. On the palate, it is full-bodied, vinous and textural yet searingly chalky—even more mineral than Les Chantereines. Guillaume Selosse remarks that oxidation during maturation (and through multiple transfers between different vessels) frees the wine from fruit in a classic sense, leaving mostly chalky extract and enhancing its mineral aspect. Every time I taste at this great domaine, I vacillate between Substance and the lieux-dits as to which wine best defines this benchmark producer. The latest release was disgorged in July 2024 with 1.5 grams per liter dosage and promises a concentrated, unforgettable drinking experience.
