Expert ratings
Robert Parker 97/100
"Describes the 1996 Clos des Goisses L.V. as an extraordinary champagne with a rich and powerful profile. The nose offers a complex bouquet of toasted brioche, honey, dried apricots, and a touch of smokiness. The palate is full-bodied and intense, with a vibrant acidity that provides freshness and structure. The finish is exceptionally long and layered, showcasing mineral and saline notes."
