Veuve Clicquot Vintage Reserve 1990

Champagne, FranceThe '90 Vintage Reserve is the last in a trilogy of three exceptional vintages that include 1988 and 1989 and perhaps the best of all. With fine depth and impressive richness this is one to lay away for a few more years. Look for ripe fruit, mostly pineapple up-front with dried fruit (apricots) and almonds in the finish. With the freshness of '88 and the ripeness of '89 this is quintessential Veuve power with elegance. A perfect choice for the millennium. Great value.Tasted: 01 September 1991Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
