    The champagne that christened the USS Enterprise in the 1979 StarTrek film was a bottle of 2065 Dom Perignon.

        I’m gonna be that Trekkie: It was a 2265 Dom Pérignon used to christen the Enterprise-B in Star Trek: Generations (1994), not ST: TMP.

        What makes you think that *I* was there? I'm like, half a Millennium YOUNGER than you! It was 2293 for the Enterprise B--but I defer to NDT.

        This is what the Memory-Alpha Wikia says, too-sort of. I meant 2265 was the Vintage year for the Dom, used in 2293 on the Enterprise-B.pic.twitter.com/FNuzpbXAGc
