Dom Prignon--Vintage 1961In original carton. Good appearanceTasting note: Pale for its age. Lively; a most beautiful bouquet, creamy, harmonious with hints of "fishy" Pinot Noir and smoky Chardonnay. After a little time in the glass, it became even more creamy, with a hint of barley sugar. Slightly sweet for Dom, with perfect weight, flavour and length. I rate it as high as my previous best ever Champagne Krug 28, tasted in 1957. M.B.(GVWBII)
