Dom Perignon Vintage 2017 (Gift Box)
The Wine
Dom Pérignon is exclusively a vintage champagne. Each vintage stands as a unique creation, expressing the character of the year and the essence of Dom Pérignon. With a minimum of eight years of cellar aging, the wine achieves the perfect balance known as Dom Pérignon's Plénitude of harmony.
The 2017 moves with weightless fluidity, its motion pulsing, boiling, and swirling. It evokes gentle surges, carrying the and mystery of evening perfumes, drawing us into a rhythmic, flowing dance. Compelling!
98 Pts James Suckling ‘An edgy Dom Perignon with intense and singular aromas of lemons, toast and botanicals. Medium-bodied with a dense center palate and a vivid and rocking finish. Tight, muscular bubbles frame this nicely. Tense. Developing well in the bottle. 62% chardonnay and 38% pinot noir. 4.5 g/L dosage.’
98 Pts Vinous ‘The 2017 Dom Pérignon is just as stunning as it was last year, if not more so. What a wine! Lemon confit, marzipan, white flowers and chalk soar out of the glass. The 2017 is like a slightly more refined version of the 2002, another year in which the Chardonnays were quite opulent. In 2017, Chardonnay accounts for 61% of the blend, very high for Dom Pérignon. Over the last year, the 2017 has gained mid-palate creaminess and has just come together beautifully. Sadly, production is tiny, so much so that the 2017 is expected to be in the market for just a few months before the maison transitions to the 2018.’
