Dom Pérignon was the first prestige cuvee.

being produced in1921 it was only released for sale in 1936 due to the great depression, no doubt that aging made it an exceptional vintage.
Dom Pérignon is a quality vintage champagne. When a champagne is described as vintage old chap it means that it’s made only in the best years, with all grpaes used being harvested in the same year.
Many champagnes in the common market are by contrast non-vintage where grapes are mixed and taken from harvests of differing years.
