Written Notes

The Keymaster noted, ‘mature pineapple, exotic mango and a lot of sweetness.’ There were orange fruits with a Galliano kiss and some wet rock. There was also some rusty nail and honey drops in its smoky nose. It definitely had a deeper color, but Sebastien was still appreciating its ‘effervescence.’ Its rusty flavors were hammered in by its hard, full acidity. This was a strong wine, almost robotic and violent. ‘Aggressive’ and ‘on fire’ came from the crowd. This was bigger but felt more chemistry than natural science. It was an old release of NV Jacques Selosses Contraste, released in 2008. I love Selosses, but I don’t think his NV cuvees get better over time (94).
