Reviews 96 points Vinous "The 1990 Comtes de Champagne captures a stylistic middle ground between the 1988 and 1990. Slightly advancing tones of orange peel and roasted nuts are beautifully contrasted by a streak of minerality that gives the wine its freshness and verve. Bright floral and mineral notes reappear on the finish, adding focus. Rich in its texture yet effortless, the 1990 offers exceptional balance and tons of class. It should continue to drink well for another 15 years. (AG)" 95 points John Gilman "I had not crossed paths with a bottle of the 1990 Comtes de Champagne in five years and I was very happy to see the wine cruising along beautifully and at the peak of its powers. The bottle was served in succession to the 1996 and 1995 versions and the 1990 really showed well amongst very stiff competition. There seems to be a bit more mid-palate power to the 1990 than these other two vintages, as well as the first vestiges of tertiary development in the aromatic and flavor spectrums. The very complex bouquet delivers scents of sweet walnut, pear, tangerine, gentle smokiness, chalky minerality and a touch of citrus peel in the upper register. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and absolutely rock solid at the core, with lovely focus and grip, refined mousse and a very long, complex and still quite vibrant finish. This is now at its apogee, but has decades of life still ahead of it. (JG)"

In Stock orders going out via Local Same Day placed before 2pm (pst) on business days will go out the same day. Weather permitting, In Stock orders going out via FedEx, Climate Controlled Ground and Temperature Controlled typically ship within 1-2 business days unless requested otherwise. We always do what we can to make sure your order won’t spend the weekend in a non-temperature controlled logistics hub and in order to facilitate this, we may hold your order for shipment the following week unless you tell us not to.
We do not fulfill partial orders by default, so if your order contains a combination of In Stock and In Transit/Pre Arrival items, we'll automatically hold the In Stock items until everything is ready. If you wish to receive your In Stock items in advance of your In Transit and/or Pre Arrival items, we do ask that you place two separate orders. If you forget to place two separate orders, but still want to receive your In Stock items first, please send us an email at team@sommpicks.com and we’ll take care of it for you.
