Description
- Champagne, France
- Dom Pérignon only creates vintage wines. Only the best grapes from exceptional years are used, making each vintage distinct. It is the perfect embodiment of the Power of Creation – an act of creation that elevates the mind and enlightens the world.
- There is complete balance between the nose and the palate. Its slender, minimalist, pure, toned, athletic character now also expresses itself with warmth. The fruit is pronounced and clear. It is mainly aromatic, grey, smoky and highly promising.
- 99 Pts Wifred Wong, 98 Pts James Suckling, 98 Pts Vinous, 98 Pts Dames Dunnuck, 96 Pts Wine Spectator, and 96 Pts Decanter
- The wine enjoys duality: warmth & freshness, meat & iodine pairings, cooked & raw. Spices enhance and accentuate 2008’s effervescence and densify the wine. Dom Pérignon likes playful experiences: culinary art, textures, and matters.
The highly anticipated Dom Pérignon Vintage 2008 is a remarkable champagne celebrating not only an exceptional vintage, but also the first collaboration between the renowned Chef de Cave Richard Geoffroy and his successor Vincent Chaperon. For the first time in history, Dom Pérignon released a Vintage non-sequentially, giving this incredible Vintage 2008 more time to fully reveal itself. With its streamlined minimalism and expressive warmth, this wine expresses pronounced fruit flavors and a well-integrated acidity that leads to an aromatic and smoky finish.
