Tasting notes
One of the highlights of the evening, the 1973 Dom Pérignon Œnothèque (Disgorged 2010) is vivid and finely sculpted. There is plenty of nuance, depth and freshness in the glass, but it is the wine’s staying power and overall persistence that stand out most, especially as the evening wears on. In this flight, the 1973 Œno is a Champagne of total finesse. It is another stellar Œnothèque and the best wine in the flight of 1973s.

The estate’s 1973 Dom Pérignon Œnothèque (magnum) was flat-out incredible. A rich, textured Champagne, the 1973 impressed for its expansive, broad-shouldered personality, depth of fruit and opulent finish. Gorgeous hints of smoke and ash lingered on the impeccable finish.
Unfortunately the 1973 Dom Pérignon Œenothèque (2nd release) was corked, which was doubly sad as the wine was otherwise quite fresh and beautifully intact.
