Product details
Dom Pérignon, a name synonymous with luxury and exceptional craftsmanship, has been producing prestigious Champagne since the 17th century. The house is renowned for its commitment to vintage-only releases, ensuring that each bottle reflects the unique character of a single year's harvest. Among its distinguished offerings is the Dom Pérignon Brut P2 Plénitude Deuxième 2000, a Champagne that embodies the brand's dedication to patience and precision. The year 2000 was marked by challenging contrasts in climate, with cold, rainy periods followed by warm, stormy weather. Despite an uncertain summer, a miraculous brightening in late August led to an exceptional harvest. While the original Dom Pérignon Vintage 2000, first released in 2008, showcased a harmonious balance of freshness and ripeness, the P2 2000 has evolved into a new expression of energy, intensity, vitality, and depth.
On the nose, the bouquet is ripe, lively, and generous, offering warm aromas of hay and brioche mingled with bergamot orange and russet stone fruits, all underscored by smoky grey accents. The palate opens vibrantly, leading to a complexity that unfolds gradually with a distinguished viscosity that elegantly contours the wine’s structure. The finish is exquisitely bitter, abounding with sap and a refined blend of liquorice and toasted malt. This remarkable Champagne pairs exquisitely with dishes such as lobster accompanied by molé verde and cardamom, or veal served in a dashi broth with spirulina, enhancing the tasting experience with its refined elegance.
