Merchant's description

Dom Pérignon P3 1971 is a vintage, prestige-cuvée Champagne produced by Moët & Chandon in Reims, France. Plénitude P3 represents the pinnacle of quality and prestige among the aged Champagnes of this most illustrious Champagne house. According to Dom Perignon`s `Plénitude` concept, there are three stages of development, or `plenitudes`, in the life of a vintage Champagne. the first spans between seven to eight years after the vintage (this is the stage at which Dom Pérignon Vintage is released). The second is reached between 12 and 15 years. The third comes after about 30 years, when the Champagne has spent more than 20 years on lees. On the 1971 P3. "Like the 1969 P3 in this tasting, the 1971 Dom Pérignon P3 is dense, powerful and quite vinous in style. A huge, explosive Champagne with fruit that nearly covers the mousse, the 1971 has enough depth to drink well for another decade, maybe more." Antonio Galloni, 2017
