Blanc de Millénaires is a masterpiece cuvée from the Côte des Blancs in a legendary vintage.

Vintage 1990

Three excellent vintages in Champagne were 1988, 1989 and 1990. Initially, many considered 1990 the finest of the trio, but that mantle has since passed to 1988. Some of the 1990 champagnes have evolved more quickly than anticipated, and there can be variation among bottles and producers. Winter and early spring saw warm weather that resulted in an early bud-break, making vines susceptible to the spring frost which duly arrived in April.

Written Notes

The foremost vintage so far of this acclaimed prestige Champagne. The scent is clear as a bell with Grand Siècle's beautiful note of sun-dried, newly laundered sheets, along with more than a dash of famous coffee-roasting house. clean, focused, lemony-fresh, and sporty taste. A Ferrari of the wine world!

Good looking normal size bottle. Colour is yellow, gold, and looking bright and light. On the nose it is open, intense, complex, generous, tempting and round. The taste is fresh, harmonious, elegant, vivid, refined, fruity, and dry, and average in acidity, medium-bodied, with perfectly balanced structure and developing. On the palate it is layered and has buttery, bread, vanilla, spice and mineral flavours. The finish is long, extensive, lingering, flavorful and vibrant. This wine is wonderful and impressive. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 1-5 years.
