- Radamez1 - 09-20-2006 Greetings, I have here a bottle of a vintage 1982 Cuvee Dom Perignon stating on the bottle that it is as I read it from the bottle... Appellation d" Origine Controlee. Moet et Chandon a Epernay. The bottle even has some numbers on it: 8.21214. I am trying to find more about this particular vintage and perhaps give me some insight. Any takers? - TheEngineer - 09-22-2006 Some information for you (from the k&l wine site 96 points Robert Parker (12/94) 93 points Wine Spectator: "Seductive and wonderfully balanced, crisp yet it caresses the palate. Has a very complex toasted bread and buttery croissant character along with some nutmeg, spice, chocolate and vanilla notes..." (10/95) They are listing for $250 per bottle but generally it is not likely that you will be able to get retail price for a single bottle and especially one that you cannot demonstrate the storage conditions over the years. Good luck to you and hope this helped. [This message has been edited by TheEngineer (edited 09-21-2006).] - Radamez1 - 09-23-2006 Thank you for that information. I really do appreciate that. I think my questions have been answered. It is awesome to know that there is so much more that goes into wines than mere taste. Thanks again. - TheEngineer - 09-24-2006 I'm definitely newbie material but there are many here that are VERY experienced. Come back and come back often! |
