Description

PRODUCER:
The Champagne takes its name from Dom Pérignon (1638–1715), a Benedictine monk and cellar master at the Benedictine Abbey in Hautvillers, who played an important role in pioneering winemaking techniques in the production of Champagne. Dom Pérignon is vintage champagne, produced in only the best years. Each vintage is a singular and unique creation, which expresses both the character of the vintage and the character of Dom Pérignon. Chef de Cave, Vincent Chaperon, ensures each Champagne spends at least eight years maturating in the cellar, resulting in a wine which embodies the perfect balance and harmony of Dom Pérignon.

VINEYARD:
Made from grapes grown on the most extensive estate in the region, 1,150 hectares. 50% of the grapes come from Grands Crus vineyards, and 25% are from Premiers Crus vineyards. The vines are grown in the renowned chalky soil of the Champagne region, which imparts elegance to the resulting wines.

WINEMAKING:
Traditional vinification using the Méthode Champenoise. This cuvée spent a minimum of eight years maturing in the cellars, resulting in a Champagne full of harmony, finesse and balance.

TASTING NOTE:
An expressive and luminous vintage, opening with aromas of stone fruit, white peach and citrus zest, followed by hints of brioche, toasted almond and gentle spice. The palate is refined yet generous, with creamy texture, vibrant acidity and a long, saline finish that brings freshness and precision.

GRAPES:
Chardonnay 38%, Pinot Meunier 29%, Pinot Noir 33%.
