AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Selling this special and very rare bottle of Dom Perignon from the private collection.
This vintage was mentioned in several block buster movies like „Meet Joe Black“

This bottle is sold with original Dom Perignon box but from different vintage (1992). Original box was lost.

Appearance:
The color presents as a deep, warm gold with subtle amber highlights—a sign of decades of maturation. The perlage is fine and restrained yet still perceptible, with a delicate veil of bubbles rising slowly in the glass.

Bouquet:
The bouquet unfolds with complexity and layers. Dominant notes of dried apricot, honeycomb, and caramel are accompanied by a spicy foundation of saffron, slivered almonds, and a hint of oxidation reminiscent of old leather-bound library volumes. Subtle touches of biscuit, toasted bread, and a whisper of mushroom underscore its elegant aging.

Palate:
On the palate, a harmonious balance emerges between mature sweetness and acidity that is restrained yet present. Flavors of candied citrus, hazelnut, and a honey blend dominate, complemented by mineral accents and a subtly salty texture reminiscent of sea air. The structure is silky and creamy, offering an almost velvety mouthfeel gently enlivened by the fine perlage.

Finish:
The finish is long-lasting, leaving traces of roasted nuts, vanilla, and a hint of bitter orange. A final touch of spice and a light earthy note add depth, inviting contemplation.

Good luck!
