DOM PERIGNON 1985

Wine 1985 Champagne Champagne

The 1985 vintage produced wines of great distinction which are characterized by their aromatic intensity and their balanced constitution. The maturity of the bunches and the harvest took place in ideal climatic conditions, thus determining the exceptional quality of the year. 

However, the vineyard was very hard hit by the severe frosts of winter and spring which destroyed several thousand hectares. subsequently the gloomy weather thwarted the flowering which started slowly and with difficulty, but fortunately it ended quickly thanks to the splendid weather which then settled in Champagne.

At the harvest, the Pinot Noirs are distinguished by their fullness and suppleness. The Chardonnais, for their part, express subtle and persistent aromas; they make up 60% of the blend, the remainder coming from selected Pinot Noir vintages.

This aged Dom is as much a complex white as it is a stylish Champagne. With the bubbles having faded over the decades, this gently sparkling wine shows how wonderfully Champagnes age. Biscuity with layers of toasted hazelnuts and brioche, the finish has just a touch of sweetness. Generous and complex, this Dom is truly at its mature peak and it reveals how lingering and glorious aged Champagne can be. I am tempted to age all my top Champagnes now for 30+ years!

I really likes this wine, with its creamy, smooth textures, the prefect amount of aging effervescence and brioche, citrus and stone character. From a perfect bottle bought on release and stored in cold cellar.

Drunk from a pristinely preserved original disgorgement, the 1985 Dom Pérignon is inviting and exuberant, bursting with aromas of apples, pears, buttered toast, orange oil, tarte tatin and smoke. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and pillowy, with a generous core of fruit, ripe but racy acids and a refined mousse. This bottle ranked a step behind a sublime magnum of this cuvée's P3 rendition that I enjoyed earlier in the year, but it was nonetheless an exquisite Champagne. In both cases, the 1985 is in its prime, so now is a great time to open bottles.

Pale, fine bubbles; fragrant, whiff of vanilla; firm and dry but not remotely austere. Long 'smoky' flavour and finish.

Dom Pérignon is a legendary vintage champagne in France. In 1668, a young monk Dom Pierre Pérignon,moved the mission to create the "world's best wine". Such ambition revealed in this young monk thirty years ago, a visionary and extraordinary audacity. The engagement of Dom Perignon is that all the Champagnes must be produced only with the harvest of the same year. 

The productions of Dom Pérignon were very popular at that time. When Dom Pérignon died, the price dropped somewhat, but not its popularity. The 1921 vintage is unquestionably the best vintage. Dom Pérignon champagnes are very long aging.
