Moet’s vintage, from the hot, low-yielding 2003 vintage, has an unusually high percentage of Pinot Meunier (43%), suggesting there is a distinct character to the year. It’s certainly powerful and intense, soft initially, hinting at toast and yeast, the fruit almost sweet, even though the wine is a brut style. It is the rich strawberry flavor that’s most surprising on a wine that really has integrated impressively.——R.V.(12/1/2008)—— 93

Taut, rather ungenerous nose. Bright edging. Crisp, quite closed on nose, not very expressive, appley. High acidity, elegant structure, well-balanced, good weight, clean fruit, apple, well-structured, decent length.

Moet’s style, with its delicious forward fruit, is well evidenced in this 1999 vintage. It is full bodied, with apple and almond flavors, developing a toasty character, but still retaining a ripe, open freshness. ——R.V.(11/1/2006)—— 92

Moet's vintage Champagnes are the house's best-kept secrets, overlooked between the NV stuff and Dom Perignon. This edition is youthful and crisp, begging for some time in the cellar. Toast, vanilla and citrus mark the nose, while the flavors stay true, finishing with a flourish of grapefruit. Try in 2010.——J.C.(12/1/2004)—— 91

This wine speaks of delicacy throughout, from its pale salmon color to its toast and button mushroom aromas and from its smooth, creamy mousse to its harmonious, citrusy finish. Nothing is overblown or out of balance, no single element dominant. It's just a really nice Champagne.——J.C.(12/1/2004)—— 90
