Winemaker's Notes
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, texture unfurls on the palate, embracing and caressing it. Momentary weightlessness with a vibrating finish arouses the taste buds with controlled ardor. The persistence is remarkable, with the slightest undertone of tartness (citrus zest and buds.)

The Dom Pérignon Vintage 1999 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.

Critical Acclaim
WE95
Wine Enthusiast - "This is a wine that thrives on tension between its structure, opulence, elegance and poise. It is certainly ripe and opulent, but it is so well balanced and layered with acidity, and flavors of almonds, orange peel and kiwi fruits. It will certainly age."
W&S94
Wine & Spirits - "This young wine has a potent mousse and equally brisk acidity. Its flavors are bright white, from chalk to fresh cream; they take some time to meld with the vibrant structure, coming together with air, lithe and refined. Richness develops in scents of brioche, mouthwatering with a fat Belon oyster, built to age."

 

I am partial to MD 20/20 personally. This is probably a little up the ladder from that! GLWS!

 

Bump for your sale OP. I'm assuming a "used" bottle would be........

 

Free Bump


Boones Farm is cheaper and quicker

 

Hear Hear!

I can drink some Strawberry Hill and do the same dumb stuff

Bump for an expensive buzz.

Choke-Gasp-$160.00???
Dom is over-priced and over-rated! Buy KORBEL (AMERICAN); a fine sparkling champenoise, produced in Guerneville, California, served at United States Presidential Inaugurations, and SOLD at less than ONE-TENTH the price of the frog bilge water.

 

Maybe at Obama's, but definitely not at the upcoming Republican one... :-)

 

storage is everything for this. How long have you owned it and how has it been stored? has it EVER been cold? is it stored in the box or open like seen in the picture? the more info you have the better, humidity, light, temp, etc?


if not stored properly you're selling a sealed display bottle (there's some value in that too) but without proper storage it's literally just "sour grapes" to drink

 

Its been stored in the original box, only exposed to light to take photos, in ac environment (76 degrees). It has never been chilled.

 

Thanks for the reply, I'm going to pass, doing some research, '99 isn't a "desirable year". Still good Champagne, just not "awesome"

Was looking for a couple bottles for the home wine cellar, and with the research pointing me towards other years for better drinking.

good luck with the sale
