Golden color. Nose is rich; cooked apples and pears, brioche, some subtle honey. Very complex and mature aromas. Palate is siimilar with less toast, nuts, and acid than I would have expected. Appropraite bubbles for a 1990. Mature fruits flavors but lacking complexity. A good nostalgic drink and certainly a nice price compared to the other 1990s out there. Comparatively, the 1990 Heidsieck blows it away but for three times the price.

Manure and hay nose. Mature fruit, leaves, and dough on the palate. A bit heavy. But great value here.
