What to Expect

Champagne is specifically a sparkling wine made in the Champagne region of France; every other sparkling is simply that, sparkling wine. Made to be aged for a few to many years, in many languages "Champagne" is synonymous with "party". When young, Champagne exhibits the fresh fruit tones of its "cepage", or blend. Usually based on a blend the features either Chardonnay or Pinot Noir as its main ingredient, Champagne's fruit can range from citrusy to orchard fruits and even red berries. The wine gains distinct yeasty notes from its secondary fermentation, the one that adds the fizz, which is typically described as recalling brioche or bread. As it ages Champagne tends to lose its obvious fruit, which is replaced by subtle nutty tones and subdued elements of dried fruits.

Winemakers Notes

The Dom Pérignon Vintage 1998 has a special way of holding its final note on and on. It's as if it doesn't want to let go. It's surprising, unique and magnicent." Richard Geoffroy, Chef de Cave Color: Pale yellow with golden highlights. On the nose: The initial notes of fresh almond and grapefruit gradually lead into cashew nut and spices complemented by lightly toasted brioche. On the palate: Satiny texture unfurls on the palate, embracing and caressing it. Momentary weightlessness with a vibrating finish arouses the taste buds with controlled ardor. The persistence read more...

This was a fantastic bottle of spectacular champagne. Out of curiosity, the first bottle we opened of '98 had gone sour, but a bottle from the same case was spectacular. It had a pleasant citrus aroma and mild tartness on the tongue along with spectacular tiny bubbles. Just like it is supposed to be!

A wonderful champagne, light, crisp, and warm with a lovely light golden color. Bubbles were plentiful and effervescent. Slightly nutty and very well-rounded.

It was a perfect birthday gift! Very light, crisp and tart with just the right amount of bubbles! As it hits the back of your throat it feels as smooth as butter. A lot of fun to try!

Pale yellow. An enticing blend of red berries, with the initial notes of fresh almond and grapefruit gradually leading into cashew nut and spices complemented by lightly toasted brioche on the nose. The satiny texture unfolds on the palate, embracing and caressing it. Momentary weightlessness with a vibrating finish arousing the taste buds with controlled ardor. There is a slightest undertone of tartness, citrus zest and buds, with the significant persistence.
