Notes de dégustation
Wineadvocate
Another terrific bottle from Selosse, the new release of the NV Extra-Brut Grand Cru La Côte Faron is based on the 2015 vintage. Mingling notes of tangerine, yellow orchard fruit, apricot and candied peel with notions of dried white flowers, baking spices and toasted almonds in a complex bouquet, it's full-bodied, satiny and layered, with extraordinary concentration, racy acids and a chiseled, tightly wound profile, concluding with a penetrating, searingly intense finish. This brilliant Champagne is a wine of genius! - WK 08/2022Vinous
The NV Extra-Brut Aÿ La Côte Faron (2014) is positively stunning. A vertical, explosive Champagne, the Côte Faron saturates the palate with huge fruit and even more imposing textural depth allied to intensely mineral notes that possess unrelenting energy. In some years, the Côte Faron can be a big, ample Champagne, but in this release it is decidedly chiseled, with pulsating energy driving the red berry fruit, chalk, white pepper, mint and crushed rock flavors. La Côte Faron was the prototype of what have since become six lieu-dit bottlings. The 2014-base version is one of the very finest I have ever tasted. Disgorged: March 11, 2021. - AG 11/2021Suckling
Spanning 2010-1994 this is a steeper site in Aÿ with less clay than Ambonnay. It shows bright and elegant red berry fruit aromas of strawberries and raspberries. The palate is quite svelte and elegant but possesses phenomenal power and tangy, sapid appeal. The finish holds fine with mineral-flecked grapefruit flavors. The nose speaks more to the grape, the palate to the terroir. A fascinating and brilliant Champagne. Drink now.
