It exudes rich aromas of raspberries and strawberries, candied blood orange peel, toast and saffron, with an elegant and smooth taste. The long and fresh finish is mineral and savory. High aging potential.

Peaches, fresh crushed strawberries and roses on the nose. Full-bodied and generous. Fine tannins that frame the wine beautifully and set it up for a fresh finish. Some fruit tea and cedar undertones. Enticing finish with hints of bitterness. Savory.

In comparison to the charming, pure 2008 Dom Pérignon Rosé, the 2009 Dom Pérignon Rosé possesses a ripe, dense bouquet with aromas of dark berries, licorice, dried white flowers, toast and pastry, enhanced by delicate, racy smoky hints. Full-bodied, broad and rich, it’s dense and phenolic due to the approximately 15% still red wine sourced from grapes planted in the villages of Hautvilliers, Aÿ and Bouzy, culminating in a protracted, sapid and chalky finish. Although already thoroughly enjoyable, it should age well over the next 10 years. This blend of 56% Pinot Noir and 44% Chardonnay was disgorged in March 2022 with a dosage of five grams per liter.
【Dom Perignon】
Dom Perignon is one of the most well-known and most popular top champagne brands and has always been the favorite of celebrities and nobles. This "gold lacquer sign" was created by the monk Dom Pierre Perignon in 1668. At that time, he worked in a monastery and made wine for the monastery. The reason why he is known as the "Father of Champagne" by later generations is not because he created Champagne sparkling wine. In fact, sparkling wine had already been produced at that time. At that time, champagne did not have a champagne head, but an oil-soaked linen seal. The wine has been fermenting so the bottle may not be able to withstand the air pressure and burst. He first sealed the champagne bottle with a cork and wire reinforcement, which perfectly solved the above problems.

The Moet Chandon Group purchased Dom Perignon in 1937 and once branded its flagship wine Dom Perignon. Since 1947, Dom Perignon has been independent of Moet Chandon. In 1983, it was reorganized into a member of the Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton (LVMH) group. Dom Perignon has three main series, including vintage champagne, pink champagne and Plenitude.
The grapes used in Dom Perignon are all collected from Grand Cru vineyards, except for Hautvillers. Dom Perignon has three main series, including vintage champagne, pink champagne and Plenitude. Vintage Champagne will only be produced in excellent years. In the Champagne region where the weather is unstable, production will be abandoned as long as it is not up to standard. The top series, Plenitude, has a longer aging period, with "P2" aged for about 15 years, of which at least 12 years. "P3" is the top quality, aged for 30-40 years, including at least 20 years on the lees.
