Was 1966 a good year in Champagne?
Champagne 1966 scores 90 out of 100. A moderate crop of healthy fruit making elegant, well-balanced wines. An excellent year falling just short of 1964 and 1969.
Winter frosts and hailstorms reduced yields, and a rainy season with little sunshine was saved by a sunny September and excellent picking conditions.

Should you buy the 1966?
Whatever you pay, ask the seller when the bottle was last moved and how it has been kept. Storage history changes what a mature bottle is worth far more than a few pounds on the shelf price.
