Critics Ratings

'Orangey gold. Very rich, almost sweet! With a lot of Pinot influence. Quite creamy-textured and dense. Probably no point in keeping this. Dried out after opening but the panoply of dried-fruit aromas was pretty exciting soon after opening.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Dec 2021)

'I highly recommend the Veuve Clicquot 1990 La Grande Dame. It is exquisitely rich and accessible, yet bursting with potential.' - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, 95/100 (Oct 1998)
