Critical Acclaim
All VintagesThis is a DP that shows the ripeness of the 2009 vintage yet remains full of energy. Gorgeous aromas of cream, apple, mango, honeysuckle, and chalk follow through to a full body and super fine, tight texture. Dense and agile. Vinous. It’s like a top grand cru white Burgundy. Think Bâtard-Montrachet. More depth than the 2006. Drink now.

COMMENTARY: My job is to taste lots and lots of wines. In laboratories, cellars, wineries, meetings, dinners, and under all kinds of circumstances—it's a tough job, but someone has to do it. So when it comes to Dom Pérignon how can I be truly objective? I have tasted many vintages of this wine, and have had so much history that scoring the wine can be difficult. Early reports on the 2009 vintage have been spotty with many saying it is a pretty good but not a great year. To give this wine a more objective rating, I put this wine into a blind tasting with my team that included a non-vintage Brut Champagne, two Cavas, a Prosecco, a Sekt, a California bubbly and unsurprisingly the Dom showed superbly. TASTING NOTES: This wine shows a fine mousse and springs forward with complex and refined aromas of ripe apples and bread dough. Its palate is lively and delightful with beautiful layers and smoothness. The wine's overall energy is bright and superb. (Tasted:

Unbroken sun through August and early September helped to shape an idyllic harvest, on 12th September. Superb maturity of fruit in flawless health has produced a wine with wafting scents of both fresh and confit of spiced lemon and wild cherry. Despite the heat, the wine has freshness, vitality and length. Still a youngster, this will grow greatly by 2019. A more stylish son of the '03, and cousin of the slender and charming '06. Disgorged June 2016.
