Tasting Notes

96
Vinous Antonio Galloni - 26 Mar 24
The 1999 Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill Vinothèque is a powerful, vibrant Champagne that has aged impeccably. Lemon confit, marzipan, dried flowers, mint, spice and chamomile abound. Time in the glass releases gorgeous inner sweetness, while a touch of reduction adds freshness and vibrancy to balance things out. The 1999 has been exceptional in two recent tasting. The style is one more of linear intensity as opposed to the decidedly headier, more exotic 1998.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 09 Mar 23
The first vintage of chef de cave Dominique Petit, the 1999 Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill is an especially rich, generous rendition of this bottling. Revealing aromas of buttered toast, sweet stone fruits, orange confit, iodine and pastry cream, it's full-bodied, fleshy and gourmand, with a broad attack and a layered core of sweet fruit, concluding with a long, saline finish. This, too, is drinking at its peak today, and once again there's no reason to delay gratification.
Drinking Date: 2010 - 2026

Jancis Robinson Richard Hemming - 19 Nov 22
Full, rich, pure and still full of powerful baked citrus fruit. Toast and petrichor on the finish. This is champagne at its fullest, really peacocking. Emphatically Pinot Noir with all that strength and structure. Utterly delicious and elemental. (RH)

Champagne

Champagne, exclusively from France's Champagne region, is synonymous with luxury and celebration. Made primarily from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier, it undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle, creating its signature bubbles. Flavours range from crisp green apple and citrus to rich, toasty notes of nuts and honey. Yeast contact in the bottle contributes to pastry and brioche notes, which are a key part of good quality Champagne. Top producers include Moët & Chandon, Veuve Clicquot, and Krug.
