Champagne is made to drink as soon as it is released to the marketplace, and it really requires no cellaring. That being said, however, the better Champagnes - particularly the high-end vintage models - can benefit with careful cellaring, evolving into an almost ethereal richness and complexity, although the tradeoff may be some loss of carbonation over extended time.
1996 shows all the signs of being one of the greatest vintages of the last century and this champagne’s carefully poised finesse can only improve, year on year, from its slow graceful aging. Fabulous to drink now but with a few extra years of cellarage the Dom Perignon 1996 promises to be sensational!
However, it all depends upon whether you have the right cellar conditions. Have you a suitably cool, dark place in which to lay it while you wait for it to become sensational, as promised?

It won't go off but I think the bottle should be stored on it's side to keep the cork wet if it dries out it can cause all sorts of problems.

I have two bottles of it one 1992 in the fridge and 1995 not refrigerated. Is it OK to refrigerate them?
