$490 per bottle

The 1996 Dom Perignon Oenotheque offers layers of pastry, lemon, smoke and toastiness. At first deceptively understated, the wine turns up positively explosive and layered on the palate, showing remarkable tension, elegance and power, all wrapped around a seriously intense frame. The balance between fruit and acidity is awesome. Anticipated maturity 2012-2026. - Wine Advocate
