This wonderful vintage champagne from the very good 1999 vintage scores 95/100 Parker points and "The 1999 Brut Blanc de Blancs Comtes de Champagne (magnum) is sourced exclusively from Grand Cru villages. A small portion of the wine is aged in barrel. The 1999 is an absolutely delicious Comtes de Champagne that needs to be opened at least an hour or two in advance to show at its finest. Smoke citrus mint and flowers are some of the nuances that emerge from this fresh fragrant Champagne. Deceptively lithe on the palate the wine blossoms with air as it fills out with endless layers of perfumed fruit. The wine can be enjoyed today even if it comes across as a touch sweet. With time that sweetness will develop into the liqueur-like perfume that makes older Comtes de Champagne so irresistibly alluring. In my experience the magnum format is especially beneficial for Champagnes and older large bottles of CdC often transform into an ethereal drink of the very highest level." Drink now - 2029. A super gift. This vintage champagne is shipped in a presentation wooden box.
