Dom Perignon 1964, in magnum, shared today with Jacques Pepin on a Global Express 5000 to the Aspen Classic. I brought a Spanish porron (i.e., wine bong) and Jacques was game. Incredibly, the Champagne still had bubble, along with terrific hazelnut, brioche flavors. The landing was extra smooth and Jacques – In his cool broken English – said he thought it was because the flight attendant must have slipped him some of the DP. Fine by me. Best pre-1970's Champagne I've had.

An amazing bottle of wine. No bubbles, light amber color. Lemon fudge creaminess, depth and a comforting weight in paradoxical zero gravity.

This was a great old Dom, showing some tea & tangerine citrus along with toffee & brioche still very vibrant and fresh.
