Jacques Selosse Version Originale

Wineadvocate

This year's disgorgement of Selosse's NV Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru V. O. (Version Originale) is excellent, offering up aromas of citrus oil, candied peel, golden orchard fruit, buttered toast, beeswax and English walnuts. Full-bodied, vinous and concentrated, it's seamless and fleshy, with a racy spine of acidity and a more chiseled, tensile, penetrating profile than the more forward Initial. It will only get better as it unwinds with additional time on cork, even if it's already delicious out of the gates. - WK 01/2022

Vinous

The NV (2013) Versione Originale (V.O.) is another highlight in this set of new releases from the Selosse family. Ample, creamy and beautifully layered, the V.O. is endowed with tons of character and nuance. Dried flowers, hazelnut, chamomile and mint all open up, but more than anything else, the Version Originale offers a striking interplay of textural richness and pure, crystalline energy. I really like the tension here. This release of Version Originale was bottled with no dosage. - AG 07/2019
