Dom Perignon Plenitude 2 Vintage 2003

Description

Plenitude 2 is the second life of Dom Perignon, patiently brought to a new elevation and set on a path to eternity. After close to 15 years of slow transformation in the cellars, Dom Perignon P2 expands its energy and rises to an apex of essential, radiant vitality, in its state of Plenitude. Elevated to new heights, it unfurls across every dimensions – wider, deeper, longer, more intense – and gifted further with an extended longevity. 2003 is a year that will remain forever the year that changed the history of Champagne. A scorching summer imposed the earliest harvest since 1822, leading Dom Perignon to interpret this unique year with an approach inspired by intuition and forward-looking choices. This is a very thick, dense DP with layers of ripe fruit. Dried apple, pineapple and pie crust with some nougat undertones. Dense and layered with chewy tannins and a juicy finish. Umami undertone. This has the highest percentage of pinot noir ever. 15 years on the lees in bottle. 62% pinot noir and 38% chardonnay.
