The 1990 Vintage is a blend of 17 different Crus, all classified as Grands and Premiers Crus. Black grapes make up two thirds of the blend: 56% Pinot noir, from the Montagne de Reims and the Grande Vallée de la Marne, and 11% Meunier, from the Premiers Crus in the west of the Montagne de Reims. The blend is completed with 33% Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs and, to a lesser extent, from the Montagne de Reims.

On the palate, the very clean attack quickly gives place to structure and concentration. This vinosity is perfectly set off by a superb dynamism. Aromas of liqueur and candied citrus fruit give the wine a lovely freshness. The finish is ample and very long.
