Dom Pérignon Oenothèque 1962 is a mature vintage prestige cuvée Champagne produced by Moët & Chandon in Reims, France. Oenothèque is the late-release, cellar-aged series of Champagnes from Dom Pérignon and represents the pinnacle of DP`s expertise in the maturation and curation of fine Champagnes. Oenothèque was rebranded as Plénitude in 1998. This is a rare opportunity to taste the very finest of vintage Champagnes from a fully mature vintage.

Apricot jam, orange peel, smoke and sweet spices are some of the many notes that lift from the glass as the 1962 Dom Pérignon Oenothèque dazzles. At the time, Dom Pérignon was fermented in oak. There is a slightly burnished quality to the 1962 that is incredibly appealing today. This is another timeless beauty from Dom Pérignon, fully mature and at a glorious peak of expression. Well-stored bottles should continue to deliver thrilling drinking for a number of years. This is a great, great showing from Dom Pérignon. This bottle was disgorged in 2002.

The Past, Present and Future of Champagne

The first release of this now famous prestige cuvée was the 1921 vintage, launched in 1936. Dom Pérignon produces only vintage Champagnes, both blanc and rosé, and offer a number of late release bottlings under their Oenothèque and Plénitude labels. The wine is named after the legendary Benedictine monk, Father Pierre Pérignon, who in 1668 arrived at the Abbey of Hautvillers, north of Épernay and began experiments that would eventually lead to the creation and bottling of sparkling wine as we know it today.

The Maison produces elegantly balanced, harmonious and extraordinarily age-worthy Champagnes that are appreciated the world over. Young vintages offer a citrus-forward, brioche-like profile while mature bottlings present notes of toasted hazelnut, honey and orange oil. A true classic in the category and a wine that remains eternally popular with connoisseurs.
