Dom Perignon Vintage 2008
Dom Perignon 2008
Dom Perignon is one of the most well known brands in the world. Dom Perignon only releases the best years of their grape production and every bottle is only made from grapes picked in one specific year. The bouquet unfolds with complexity, emanating hints of white flowers and mint, succeeded by more intricate, spicy undertones such as smoke and white pepper. A harmonious equilibrium is achieved between the aromatic experience and the palate. The fruit presence is distinct and lucid, with the acidity seamlessly integrated in a remarkably elegant manner. This Champagne consistently delivers an experience that never fails to impress.
2008 is a legendary vintage and it will be remembered for a long time to go. This champagne tastes incredible. But if you don't want to drink it now it will also be a great investment.
Comments from tasting:
96/100 - Robert Parker
"The finest release of this iconic cuvée since the 1996 vintage, the 2008 Dom Pérignon wafts from the glass with an incipiently complex bouquet of Meyer lemon, green apple, dried white flowers and oyster shell, with only subtle hints of the smoky, autolytic aromas that have been such a prominent signature of recent releases. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep and complete, its notable flesh and amplitude controlled by incisive acids, with a youthfully exuberant but elegant mousse and a long, beautifully delineated finish. Considering the sheer size of this cuvée, it's a remarkable achievement and a fitting release with which to conclude Richard Geoffroy's tenure as chef de cave. Given the 2008's intensity and balance, I suspect purists will be anticipating later disgorgements with lower dosage and more time on the lees with particular enthusiasm. Tasted three times, with consistent results."
