100% Pinot Meunier champagne without bubbles. Brilliant expression of how Bedel makes wine first and foremost. — 8 years ago
This bottle was tasted blind after a lengthy wine-tasting event. I was given two hints - it's available in Garage (Sabotage), and I haven't tasted it yet. Initially (???), my drunken mind suggested Clandestin. But after Vova asked me about the grape, I was like - shit, it's definitely Pinot Meunier. The wine is expressive, complex, aged (hehe, what an irony) and as delicious as promises of Heaven. It must be Bedel, and Jouvence is (probably) the only bottle I haven't tasted so far. Bingo!
What can I say? It's an incredible wine. Charming notes of mushrooms and wet cellar interleaved with honey, brioche, nuts, Jerez and honeysuckle. Intense, saline, perfectly balanced and prolonged. What else do you need? Authentic elixir of youth (c).

Great champagne. At the same time “vineux” and delicate — 7 years ago
Degorgée 23 juillet 2012.
Encore une expérience wow avec Selosse ! Couleur or, beaucoup plus foncée que la majorité des champagnes. Présence qui tapisse la bouche de fruits à chair blanche. Texture crémeuse, style oxydatif, plus prononcé que Bedel bu dernièrement. Belle longueur. — 8 years ago
