About this deal

After a markedly smooth and round initial mouthfeel, the wine nestles in the heart of the palate, settling with a sort of intimately intense caress. Dom Pérignon Rosé 2002 sharpens the paradoxes with this vibrant interpretation: luminous and dark, ripe and rich, all at once.

Sappy, penetrating raspberry and bitter cherry flavors gain sweetness with air, with notes of orange marmalade and succulent herbs adding complexity. Dom Pérignon Rosé is only available as a vintage champagne and is only produced in exceptional years. Strong, spicy and firm character, still in a youthful berry exuberant face but lurking to reveal its wild, winey and Burgundian side. As a point of interest, he taught this method to Benedictine monk, Thierry Ruinart, in 1669, which allowed Ruinart to become the first Champagne house in 1729. The wine offers an ethereal quality, accentuated by soft toasted aromas on the finish, resulting in great length, and mineral reverberations.When Father Pierre Pérignon took over as cellar master at the Benedictine Abbey of Hautvillers in 1668, his avowed goal was "to make the best wine in the world". Champagne / France Producer Notes It reflects a deep impulse to question everything, to embrace risk, experiment freely and to always go further. The chalky soil in this cool northerly climate creates a unique terroir for the Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier grapes. On the palate, vibrant freshness is embraced with dark forest berries, but also cranberries mingled with herbs such as thyme and rosemary, as well as a slight honey nuanced core.

Young vintages offer a citrus-forward, brioche-like profile while mature bottlings present notes of toasted hazelnut, honey and orange oil. A seductive offering of roasted fig, apricot and candied orange, this intensely fruity champagne quickly opens up to deliver intoxicating notes of cocoa and dark spices, developing into a sweet, crisp and succulent tone with soft smoky accents. Then you look deeper and you get some of the darker fruits like dark cherry, blackberry and spicy redcurrant; this is quite seductive.v=1596112823","options":["Size"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":6698738712627,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1. The signature toastiness is already present: I find some coffee and walnut tones on the mid-palate, slightly forward but not fully resolved. Tasting older than expected, the wine focuses on its lush, ripe, slightly honeyed, sweet, fresh, red cherries, strawberries, flowers, touch of orange citrus and brioche.
