CWD: Best Champagne ever?

Well, of course it wasn't, but when it's the Champagne to toast the arrival of your daughter, in the year of the monkey no less, it is a truly special wine. The Selosse Initial from the 2013 disgorgement was in the classic Selosse vein, Burgundy with bubbles.

Mom's family has a tradition of rubbing wine and garlic on the new baby's lips upon arrival. Her first taste in this world was 2000 Côte-Rôtie from our dear friend, Eric Texier. She smacked her lips, so I guess it did the trick. 98 points?

Mom and baby are home safe, happy and very healthy. Dad is feeling very grateful.
