Critics reviews
The 1999 Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill Vinothèque is a powerful, vibrant Champagne that has aged impeccably. Lemon confit, marzipan, dried flowers, mint, spice and chamomile abound. Time in the glass releases gorgeous inner sweetness, while a touch of reduction adds freshness and vibrancy to balance things out. The 1999 has been exceptional in two recent tastings. The style is one more of linear intensity as opposed to the decidedly headier, more exotic 1998.
Drink 2024 - 2034
A rich and broad-shouldered Sir Winston library release. It's rich with cooked apple, light apricot and peach character, as well as pie crust. Just a hint of salted butter. A layered and rich center-palate and a flavorful finish with freshness at the end. This needs food. Drinking beautifully now.
About this wine
Champagne
In 1668, the monk Dom Pérignon is credited with discovering the traditional method of making sparkling wine - a technique now used worldwide. Yet it is only in Champagne, France’s most northerly wine region, that this method produces wines of such finesse and prestige. Today, Champagne is home to over 15,000 growers and 290 Champagne houses. The region’s cool climate often necessitates a blend of grape varieties: Chardonnay brings fruit and elegance, while Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier provide body and backbone.
