Based on the 2018 vintage and disgorged in January 2025 without dosage, Selosse’s NV Blanc de Noirs Aÿ La Côte Faron unfurls from the glass with a flamboyant bouquet of pear, dried apricot and brioche, mingled with notes of orange oil and almond paste. On the palate, it is full-bodied, deep and enveloping, delivering a rich core of fruit without any sense of precocity. Ripe yet lively acidity lends energy, carrying through to a long, resonant and flavorful finish. Shaped by the high maturity conferred by the site—defined by intense daytime heat and tempered only by cooling winds (hence its former name, Contraste)—it remains, as ever, one of the richest and most demonstrative wines in the portfolio. It is further distinguished by the oldest historical blend among all the lieux-dits, dating back to 1994.

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.
