About This Champagne
The 1983 vintage was rated modestly at first, yet this late P3 release shows how well it has aged.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Toast and yeast, with lychee, mango and ripe citrus, and a caramelised nut note in the background.
- Palate: Medium bodied and lively, with honeyed apple, brioche and orange marmalade over a firm mousse.
- Finish: Layered and long, closing on salted lemon and a hint of seaweed.
Serving & Food
Chill it to 8 to 10°C and let it warm a degree or two in the glass. Serve it with har gow or grilled prawns with garlic.
Good to Know
Is the mousse still lively? Yes, still firm.
When should I drink it? Best opened within the next couple of years.

About the Maison
Moët & Chandon released the first Dom Pérignon, the 1921, in 1936, and LVMH owns the house today. It has fermented in stainless steel since the mid-1960s, keeping air away to build a smoky, gunflint note.
