#AgedWineTuesday Light gold in color. Nice crisp nose with limes and brioche. Light to medium in body with medium plus acidity and small bubbles. Dry on the palate with nice complexity. Showing citrus, yeast, minerals, bread, green apples, herbs, earth, lemon juice and white pepper. Long finish, tasty and elegant. This 16 year old still feels very young, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years. Rich and well balanced. I love this vintage of Dom Perignon. Complex and interesting. I've had this vintage it a few times before, and it is very consistent. Good by itself as a sipping wine, or with food. Good stuff. 12.5% alcohol by volume. 92 points. $350.

This was opened and we enjoyed a few glasses before recorking and reapproaching 24 hours later, at which point it was really singing. Yellow peach, pear and medley of orchard fruit, layered with pressed yellow flowers, dried persimmon, and notes of vanilla and bourbon. So delicate. Such fine bubbles. Saltwater taffy and some caramel and rock salt on the palate. Subtle tannic echo. Mesmerizing.

From mag. Creamy lime and oyster shells. Lush and seductive with a steely spine. Surprisingly open. Matt ROPP
