94/100 with the following review:
My notes say "nom-nom" - which says it all! Dry, dry and crisp but with great body hiding under the fine bubbles. Lemon, brioche and almond on the palate. Beautifully sippable now, but will evolve for another decade.

An elegant Champagne! Fine mousse, delicate notes of citrus, green apple and brioche. A long, smooth finish with hint of minerality. A true classic. Enjoy sipping on its own- take your time with this one!

A special vintage champagne. Aromas of salted almonds, green apple and apricot. Abundant lemon on the palate with lasting bubbles and a dry lemongrass and green apple finish. Tasting this was a treat! Enjoy it with any type of creamy cheese or on its own.

Beautiful, the perfect wine to enjoy for a celebration or special occasion. Beautiful toast and biscuit notes, along with a bit of lemon zest and crisp green apple. Mousse is fine and creamy with tiny, intense bubbles. No food pairing necessary, just pour a glass and enjoy!

This has apples, toasty, yeasty notes that are so appealing on the nose for champagne drinkers/lovers, and this a great example of one of the finest. A vintage year, that will last decades in the cellar but is ready to drink now, with high acidity that is perfectly balanced fruit and slight sweetness. Amazing!

Bright yellow straw. Fresh peaches, fresh baked bread yeast, and hazelnut aromas. Gentle fizz and long juicy lemon finish. Will pair with everything or absolutely nothing! Score 92. (Reviewed Nov. 27, 2016).

Liquid gold! Baked pear and brioche, delicate bubbles, a wonderful gift wine. If you snag this for New Year's Eve, be sure to enjoy it FIRST to savour everything this celebration wine has to offer.

Delicate aromas and flavours of white tree fruit, brioche and crushed nuts, enveloped in a beautiful very fine, creamy mousse. This is the ideal Champagne to celebrate a special moment, or to give as a gift. Some call it pricey, but it costs the same as getting your tires changed and stored, so why not live a little?

The first thing you notice is the yeast, biscuit and brioche. This is the House's 65th Vintage since 1810 and they truly know how to make a fine champagne. Long finish with citrus notes. Pair this with - absolutely nothing - it should be enjoyed just on its own!! Tasted November 27, 2016
Natalie's Review
Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Brut Vintage Champagne 2008, Champagne A.C., France: The grand dame herself Madame Clicquot was known for her robust, rather masculine Champagnes, in which Pinot Noir often led in the blend. Today is no different, especially with this marvelous vintage dated sparkling wine. Creamy, toasty and rich: a beautiful vintage dated Champagne. Aromas of crisp apple and freshly baked bread. Pair with oysters. Great balance, structure, acidity and finish here. Drink: 2014-2025. 508614 12.50% D 750 mL $120.95 Score: 93/100. December 16, 2023 Top Rated Sparkling Wine.
