Selosse is an interesting Champagne producer that stopped exporting
wines to the US about 4-5 years ago. I first tried one in 2003. This
bottle was definitely gray market with the green French sticker and the
back label in French. I believe this champagne is low-dosage. Now available in the US but rare - the lowest price from WS is $120.Â
This did not impress me with the first glass. It seemed like it needed time to unwind after opening. By the end of the bottle I was impressed and trying to make more appear.  Very tasty.

- N.V. Jacques Selosse Champagne Brut Initiale - France, Champagne (12/31/2007)
Disgorged 10/2006. A powerful nose with honey notes leading into a palate of marzipan and golden apple flavors. This had a very creamy mouthfeel. Slight mousse with small bubbles that dissipated fairly quickly. Very different and rather good. An intellectual champagne if there is such a thing. It continued to change in the glass - the best drink was the last one at a slightly warmer temperature. (93 pts.)
