100 AG. "The 1996 Clos du Mesnil is every bit as stratospheric as it has always been. An iconic, epic Champagne of the highest level, the 1996 Clos du Mesnil captivates all the senses with its breathtaking precision and crystalline purity. The flavors are bright, sculpted and intensely mineral driven to the core. There isn't too much to add. Put simply, the 1996 Clos du Mesnil is one of the greatest and most moving Champagnes I have ever had the privilege to taste and drink." Vinous, Oct 2014 |
