This is haunting. Gentle red fruit, supple rose flavors. All very delicate. Recently disgorged, very delicate with haunting cherry and gorgeous subtle fruit. This is so pretty, and lovely.

1979 vintage. In magnum. At Hotel du Marc. Pale copper hue. On the nose, soy sauce, cranberry sauce, red currant, saline minerality. On the palate, medium plus acidity, medium minus body, medium concentration of flavour. Longish finish. Very good indeed. Drink now - in magnum, could age for another 5 years +.

Dec 1st, 20161979 vintage in magnum at the Mark's Club Veuve Clicquot dinner. Veuve Cliquot Rose Cave Privee: Rich pink peach in colour. Steady stream of very fine bubbles. Freshly cut mature strawberries on the nose are quickly followed by crushed flowers - predominantly roses. There is a very floral nature to the wine and this element really jumps out of the glass. Incredible considering its age. The wine is lacking in the mid pallet and the finish is long but somewhat angular. A delightful Champagne from a special vintage although a little disjointed. 92/100. Drink now to 2030. This magnum was disgorged in 2011.
