{champagne} when Dom met James

Just charting 007’s tryst with Dom Perignon

*Moonraker: The literary James Bond first drinks Dom Perignon — he has two bottles of the ’46.

*Dr. No: The villain stops 007 from using a bottle of ’55 as a weapon, to which Bond quips, “I prefer the ’53 myself.”

*Goldfinger: Bond declares a preference for the ’53

*Thunderball: He orders a bottle of the ’55.

*The Man with the Golden Gun: 007 offers a bottle of ’64 to Dr No saying, “I prefer the ’62 myself.”

*The Spy Who Loved Me: Bond says about Stromberg; “Any man who drinks Dom Perignon ’52 can’t be all bad.”

Dom anyone?
