This vintage further demonstrates the excellence of Moet & Chandon's offerings. Aromas of ripe pears and candied citrus fruit give way to floral expressions of fresh almonds with hints of toast. On the palate, the wine is well balanced throughout.

- Blend: 50% Chardonnay, 34% Pinot Noir, 16% Pinot Meunier Color: Golden yellow On the nose: Hints of gently roasted almonds and hazelnuts are gradually illuminated by tangy notes (grapefruit and mandarin orange) accented with hints of vegetal sweetness (rhubarb) and spices (peppermint, green coffee). The fruitiness radiantly asserts itself in an intense bouquet of tropical fruits. On the palate: The initial power - forthright, imposing, raw yet in no way brutal - gradually dissolves into warm, rich, creamy opulence, before the energy bursts forth once more, vibrating in a crisp finale. read more...Attractive aromas of brioche and lemon zest. Creamy entry with a nice integration of vanilla, green apple and balanced acidity. Tart and drying finish has a focus on citrus. -Wine News (hide)

- every year i treat myself to one of these (and share with friends). delicious and refreshing, it's like waking up to a breakfast of fresh gingered toast and sparkling lemonade on a spring morning.
