About the Product

Drinking Window: 2000-2020

Analytical Data

Sparkling

Alcohol ABV: 12 - 12.5%
Method: Traditional Method
Dosage: Brut
Sweetness: Dry

Production Attributes

Winemaker: Dominique Foulon
Ownership: LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton
Closure Type: Cork
Vintage Notes: After a particularly rapid spurt in vegetation growth, the Champagne region is hit hard by spring frosts in April. Blossoming is therefore difficult in the cold and rainy conditions. Blossom drop and uneven grape development are only compensated by the large number of bunches and the wide branches. A heat wave summer then sets in and remains until the generous downpours in the days leading up to the harvest, (on September 11). The musts boast an exceptional composition and homogenous quality; throughout the Champagne region.

Producer Tasting Notes: Initial floral nose gives way to notes of fresh almonds, dried apricots and toasted brioche. The wine is full and round without being opulent and expresses great harmony. The attack is definite and intense leading to a silky finish reminiscent of preserved citrus fruits.

1990 Vintage Tasted: Feb 2017

This is really incredible with orange peel, dried pineapple and flan. Exotic. Full body, round and savory. Crazy character at the finish of cooked pineapple and tart tartine. Gorgeous; can't believe it.

1990 Vintage Tasted: Sep 2012

Toast, honey, nuts and sweet citrus aromas with soft textures, moderate effervescence and a ripe, clean, creamy, frehs, apple and citrus rind finish. 94 Points

95 / 100 Falstaff

1990 Vintage Tasted: Jan 2004

Medium yellow, smoky scents, characteristic roasted aromas, a tremendous bouquet, biscuits, cocoa and hazelnut. Sublimely splendid on the palate, regains minerality with air contact, shows an impressive streak of sweetness on the finish. At a good starting point in its evolution. Great elegance.

About Falstaff

98 / 100 Gismondi on Wine

1990 Vintage Tasted: Apr 2001

The 1990 is as big as it gets for Dom and it will undoubtedly age well into the next millennium. For the moment, the fruit and weight of the vintage carry the wine but the mid-palate creamy flavours and extract are about to explode. One for the millennium but don't wait to buy it because it's going to be gone. (Anthony Gismondi).

Vintage quality: Legendary

Current condition: Ready to drink

The 1990 year was a great year for Champagne.

The vintage was, arguably, one of the best vintages in the latter half of the 20th Century. The year began with a cool spring, which saw heavy frosts in April. However, the summer was long, hot and dry and the harvest wa...
