This was a long overdue get-together for the four of us where Greg and I had promised to pull some seriously nice older wines and Sayo cooked a great Thai dinner of duck breast and pigeon followed by French cheese....a cigar.......
....and suddenly it was 2.00am.
1999 Moët & Chandon Champagne Cuvée Dom Pérignon 89 Points
France, Champagne
Light white-silver colour. Low mousse and subdued bubbles. Nose is really gorgeous....light toasty brioche, yeasty but also high notes are there too. Palate on the front end is too heavy with alcohol at the moment and slightly burning but with a lovely honeyed and resonant finish. A work in progress....in its awkward adolescent stage, based on this bottle.
