This is a rare single bottle of this renowned vintage offering from Dom Perignon.
Dom Pérignon is always made up of a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, roughly 50 percent of each, depending on the vintage. All of the grapes are from Grand Cru vineyards in the Côtes des Blancs (for Chardonnay) and Montagne de Reims (for Pinot Noir), but a little bit of Pinot Noir from the Premier Cru village of Hautvillers is also always in the blend, perhaps for sentimental or historical reasons.
It is difficult to find up-to-date tasting notes of this wine, however, the following is reasonably comntemporary and I have also added a 'slice' from the Cellar Tracker website with consumer notes from as recently as 2009.

Moët & Chandon, Champagne (France) Dom Pérignon Brut 1962 (not currently available): The 1962 Dom Pérignon came the closest to tasting like a great white Burgundy, such as Montrachet. It is floral and voluptuous, but still fresh, and with great acidity. A superb Champagne, at its peak; one could not help but love this 44 year-old beauty. Another taster present proclaimed this 1962 the Champagne of the evening. For me, the 1962 was second only to the 1966, which possessed greater youth and balance. 98

Tasted by BradE on 9/8/2009: DP at Acker pre-party. (Bouley NYC): An incredible bottle of 62. Only next to what was a perfect 64 could the 62 be anything but WOTN. What a duo. (1826 views)
