1985 Moët & Chandon Cuvée Dom Pérignon Vintage

This is a legendary, pristine museum-vintage bottle of Cuvée Dom Pérignon from the exceptional 1985 vintage. Dom Pérignon remains the global benchmark for prestige Champagne, named after the 17th-century Benedictine monk who pioneered many of the foundational grape selection and pressing techniques used in Champagne production today. Crafted exclusively during superior vintage years from elite Grand Cru and Premier Cru parcels, Dom Pérignon's hallmark style relies on a meticulous, harmonious blending of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, subjected to prolonged aging on its lees to acquire its famous aromatic luxury and creamy texture.
