Belated title celebrations for Liverpool's 2018/19 Premier League triumph given the COVID restrictions which precluded celebrations last year. All of the wines from the year during which Liverpool last won the title, 1990.
Served with beef picanha on the BBQ.
In a not-too-shabby line-up, the Grange was head & shoulders above the others. Power, poise and still unbelievably youthful it was WOTN for everyone. Hopefully we will be able to do this again in less than 30 years!
1990 Moët & Chandon Champagne Cuvée Dom Pérignon 93 Points
France, Champagne
Initial glass was too cold and we should probably have decanted as the final glass from the bottle was the best.
Very soft bubbles upon pouring which ceased within minutes of sitting in the glass. Definite hint of sherry on both the nose and palate. Toasted almonds. Not the longest length. Overall a lovely champagne, but I recall this being far better 20 years ago when I last had it.
