Moet & Chandon Dom Pérignon 1999
The tasting begins with a wine that breathes and comes alive in a light, playful spiral, with touches f angelica, coconut, cinnamon, cocoa and tobacco. In the mouth, the wine reaches a state of complex fullness: earthy, smoky and pearly, underscored by the vibrant warmth of peppery spice. The sensation of intesity develops and melts into a deep, rounded heart, with a fruity, exotic maturity and a slight touch of aniseed. The sensation, almost unsettling is even more pronounced in the finish, while the notes of spice, still present, remain discreet, with toasted and iodine flavors. Wine Spectator There's a high-toned minty graphite accent to the aroma, with a citric edge on the palate. The structure is overlaid with lemon and bread dough notes. This is tight and crisp on the finish, so break out the sole or shellfish, or wait a few years. Best from 2008 through 2020. Score: 90. —Bruce Sanderson, July 31, 2007. |
