95 points Wine Enthusiast: "One of Veuve Clicquot’s library releases, this wine is now wonderfully mature with layer upon layer of toast, spice, roasted almonds and roundness. As it has developed, it has also grown so rich that it is much closer to Burgundy than Champagne. The acidity of Champagne and that lift in the mouth show its true origins." (12/08) 93 points Wine Spectator: "This elegant, complex Champagne has a mature bouquet of smoke, dried red fruits, lemon and spice flavors set in relief by the bracing structure. Well-integrated and intense, with a lingering finish of roasted walnut, citrus and wood smoke. Drink now through 2018" (12/09) 92 points Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar: "Brassy gold. Powerful, pungent, complex, lightly oxidative bouquet of toasty lees, apple butter, peach nectar, cured meat and dried rose. Full and chewy, with decadent dried fruit and nut flavors accented by deeper toffee and caramel tones. There's surprising energy here, and subtle lift to the flavors. Almost sweet on the long, toasty finish, with a persistent note of marzipan." (11/06)
