Dom Perignon 1996 - As far as I coud tell, light gold in the very dim light. Very deep flavor. Medium weight. A little smoky on the finish, white chocolate and nougat. Honey and lemon drops. Unbelievable length. Young, but a real beauty. Seamless and complete. Best champagne of the year so far. Age will certainly bring additional nuances but it is so tempting and seductive I could easily drink it with pleasure now. Outstanding. Many thanks to Jojo for this beauty.
