Dom Pérignon Vintage 2012
The perfect harmony: Dom Pérignon vintage
HARMONIOUS AND CONSISTENT
For Dom Pérignon,blending is the key stage inthe production of champagne. This creative process, beginning with the vine and involving an exploration rooted in intuition and creativity, gives rise to contrasts and paradoxes, opposites and complementarities, thereby revealing the true character of each vintage. This is reflected in the Dom Pérignon 2012 vintage and its explosive harmony, which we are sharing today. The unpredictability, authority and generosity of the 2012 growing season have created a unique olfactory landscape of incredible diversity. Unparalleled richness and variety: in 2012, every grape variety, every region, every village and every plot was at its very best, allowing the vintage to fulfil its full potential. Combining intensity, restrained tension and extreme contrasts, Dom Pérignon Vintage 2012 presents a unique structure that displays a controlled rhythm of energy guided by acidity and bitterness.
THE NOSE
The nose is full and varied, with a blend of flowers and fruits, followed by herbs and minerals. The bouquets are tactile. Pink and white flowers softened by apricot and Merabel plums. From the freshness of rhubarb and mint to the minerality of ash. White pepper.
THE PALATE
This is the dominant sensation on the palate. After a welcoming opening, the wine quickly comes to life. The effervescence emerges and is uplifting. The finish tightens, guided by acidity and bitterness. It leaves a lasting impression: ginger, tobacco, toast.
