Veuve Clicquot : Vintage 2004

2004 Champagne Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Meunier

Veuve Clicquot Champagne House’s 64^th release, 2004 Vintage, is a blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Meunier.

This champagne reveals a bright and shiny golden hue. The fine bubbles form a slowly dissipating line of small pearls. The 2004 Vintage reveals an elegant bouquet opening on crunchy, fresh, fruit aromas (vine peach and citrus) with hints of mineral from the vineyard limestone soil. This champagne exudes notes of violet and lilac gradually replaced by bread scents: hazelnut, quince paste, and fresh. The attack is impeccable on the palate. The 2004 Vintage is generously fresh. The Pinot Noir increases the intensity of this wine for more body: tense and very lively.
