November 6, 2021 - This bottle of the ‘71 Oeno is a great example of an ancient Dom Pérignon. Limpid and perfect acidity. True to form, it’s not about yeast or bread; the fruit is now an austere shell of citrus. There was a very brief spray of tiny bubbles when pouring into the glass. You have to approach a champagne this old on its own terms because the resemblance to twentieth century champagne is minimal. I would not be sure tasting it blind that it was even champagne and I surely would not guess it was Chardonnay or Pinot Noir. Much appreciated by the birthday crowd.

December 17, 2019 - 2008 disgorge. Deep but smooth palate here. Completely delicious, nothing wrong w this oeno as it certainly showed more character than more recently disgorged bottles

September 27, 2019 - Three Old Bordeaux and Some Starters (Bellecour. Wayzata, MN): Dense and almost viscous, the 71 Oeno continues to drink wonderfully. A beautiful wine, not just a great champagne.
