1995 Champagne

Learn more about 1995 Champagne

This vintage came as a welcome relief to the Champenois after the previous four vintages, which had been difficult, to say the least. Growing conditions were good throughout the summer, although there was some rain in September causing some rot to develop. The grapes were harvested in the second half of September and during October in predominantly dry weather. This was the first universally declared vintage since 1990 and many excellent Champagnes have been produced. At this stage the Champagnes are similar in character to the 1988s, with the best examples possessing marvellous ageing potential.

Bollinger were the first successfully to market the Late Disgorged concept; indeed they imposed a trademark on the RD (Récemment Degorgée) nomenclature, leaving imitators linguistically taxed in their wake. Rather more controversial is their philosophy of multiple releases of the same wine: Some RD 95 was disgorged in, say 2006, but this particular batch was disgorged in late 2007. Enigma variations on them? Who can say? What we can say its that this is an incomparable expression of a rich Pinot Noir- dominated , oak fermented Champagne, its savoury complexity harmoniously integrated with its low (3gr) residual sugar.

1995 Moët & Chandon, Cuvée Dom Pérignon Oenotheque
Ready, but will keep,
The fruits of an exceptionally warm summer, the 1995 Oenotheque was released in early 2008. Its colour is an elegant pale gold; then notes of brioche and honey, entwined with almonds, apricots and hints of smoke. The palate is intense but beautifully rounded, the tension of its make-up relieved by an exuberance of mineral purity and intensity of fruit.
