Somebody else will have to comment on prices of 1985 Champagnes generally, but I had a bottle of Belle Epoque 1985 in October and I can tell you that it was on stunning form, with promise to improve even further. However, it really does depend on storage conditions, which should be cool (consistent temperature is more important than actual degree) and dark. If it has been properly stored, your daughter can expect to experience a truly great Champagne.
