Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Vintage Brut Champagne 2004 75cl

The exceptionally fine weather conditions in September allowed the abundant crop of grapes to ripen beautifully. We harvested some very fine grapes in excellent conditions of health. The pinot noir wines are fruity and full-bodied; the chardormay wines show a lot of distinction and the pinots meunier wines add a touch of gourmandise. Sourced from twenty vineyards, all grand and premier cru, this is a stunningly good wine. With the classic veuve pinot muscularity redolent of red fruit and creme brulee, the wine is immediately seductive but has harmonious balance and a pleasing freshness on the finish.
