Dom Perignon Brut Vintage 2009

Description

Dom Perignon is vintage champagne only. Each vintage is a creation, singular and unique, that expresses both the character of the year, and the character of Dom Perignon. After at least eight years of elaboration in the cellars, the wine embodies the perfect balance of Dom Perignon, the Plenitude of harmony. The stretch of excellent weather condition of 2009 was unprecedented, and allowing the champagne house to explore new frontiers of grape ripeness in Champagne. The vintage offers a taste of the ripest and richest fruit, grapes in their prime, with the promise of the future wine’s freshness and energy. The 2009 vintage brings a prodigious, sunny, bold and generous decade to a close. This is a DP that shows the ripeness of the 2009 vintage yet remains full of energy. Gorgeous aromas of cream, apple, mango, honeysuckle, and chalk follow through to a full body and super fine, tight texture. Dense and agile. Vinous. It’s like a top grand cru white Burgundy. Think Batard-Montrachet. More depth than the 2006. Drink now. – Nick Stock, Jamessuckling.com, 97 points The Finer Details Style – Champagne Varietal – Chardonnay, Pinot Noir Country – France Region – Champagne Vintage – 2009 Bottle Size – 750ml ABV – 12.5%
