From $3,980 per Bt, Early Disgorged Bottles of Jacques Selosse Initial and Version Originale

Jacques Selosse is probably one of the biggest names in Champagne in recent years and prices are skyrocketing with many chasing after their bottles. Considered to be one of the best growers and most influential winemakers in Champagne in which 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), Jacques Selosse has all Grand Cru holdings in Avize, Cramant and Oger. 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 the lifetime!
 
We are delighted to offer two parcels of early disgorged Jacques Selosse Initial and  V.O..  bought from original cases and stored in a professional warehouse in the UK, these are superb Champagne that create extraordinary experience of drinking - 



Jacques Selosse Initial Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru (Disgorged 2014) 
HK$3,980 per bottle, 12 available, ETA 2 weeks

94pts William Kelley (From 2018 Disgorged)
Wafting from the glass with aromas of dried fruits, peach, vanilla pod, toasted nuts and beeswax, it's full-bodied, layered and textural, with a vinous, multidimensional profile that remains racy and precise despite its power and concentration, concluding with a long, delicately vino-inflected finish. This release is already showing very well.

Jacques Selosse V.O. 'Version Originale' Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Extra Brut (Disgorged 2013)
HK$4,280 per bottle, 12 available, ETA 4 weeks

96pts William Kelley (From 2019 Disgorged)
All the 2019 disgorgements of Selosse's emblematic Blanc de Blancs cuvées are brilliant, and revisiting the November 2019 disgorgment of the NV Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru V. O. (Version Originale), I clearly underrated this wine on release. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of dried fruits, citrus oil, toasted nuts, drawn butter, yellow orchard fruit, clear honey and fenugreek, it's medium to full-bodied, broad and vinous, with terrific concentration allied with excellent tension. In fact, if this disgorgement stands out, it's for its especially notable cut and precision. Concluding with a long, sapid finish, it's a bottle that doesn't survive very long after opening in our household.

Subject to final confirmation.
