Epernay, Champagne
Comments
Dom Perignon pays eternal tribute to a 17th century monk from Champagne, who is one of the most important figures in the history of the region. Without him, it would be difficult to have the position in the wine world that Champagne enjoys today. Dom Perignon is also one of the prestigious and iconic champagnes, enjoying great fame around the world. It is also the highest expression of the region's wines, always at the highest level, even despite the ever-increasing scale of production.
The 1996 vintage mixes chardonnay and pinot noir in equal proportions and offers a beautifully developed, creamy body that smells like hazelnuts, almonds, puff pastry, golden apple, shells and wet stones. The ever-present acidity and clearly defined structure gave the potential for such beautiful maturation. A wine ready to drink right away.
