1995 Dom Perignon Champagne Rose P2 #234758846
750ml
Reviews 95 points Wine Advocate "The Dom Perignon Rose often does not perform well until around ten years of age, and the 1995 is revealing a bold, medium pink salmon color followed by broad berry notes intermixed with a smoky/earthy character. Rich, full-bodied, backward, and tannic, it should hit its peak in 2-3 years, and last for a decade thereafter. Readers should remember that the 1971 Dom Perignon Rose is still drinking exquisitely. I recently had the 1969 and 1970 Dom Perignons (from magnum), and both were drinking brilliantly. It makes one realize just how long-lived these wines can be. Production is confidential, but there must be hundreds of thousands of cases of Dom Perignon since it available in most of the world's luxury hotels and restaurants. (RP)" 96 points Vinous " A totally breathtaking wine, the 1995 Dom Perignon Rose P2 is a fitting conclusion to this tasting. Crushed flowers, sweet tobacco, cedar and dried cherry give the 1995 fabulous aromatic complexity and nuance. Deceptive in its ethereal feel, the 1995 has lovely palate presence and tons of class. It is both mature and timeless, in the way only Champagne can be. (AG)"

About Dom Perignon
Dom Pérignon, the prestige cuvée of Champagne’s renowned Moët & Chandon, embodies a rich legacy of meticulous craftsmanship and unyielding pursuit of perfection, inspired by the 17th-century Benedictine monk from whose efforts la méthode champenoise emerged. Committed solely to producing vintage expressions, Dom Pérignon is celebrated for its rigorous selection and blending of the estate's superior grapes, typically realizing no more than six vintages per decade due to the high standards it upholds.
Vincent Chaperon, the winemaker, employs house yeast strains during both primary and malolactic fermentations; each batch of grapes is fermented individually to maintain optimal control over the process. The resultant blend, predominantly equal parts Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, is adjusted per the demands of the vintage. The wine, embodying the house style of fresh, mineral notes and finely honed structure, rests on its lees for an impressive seven years before undergoing riddling. Following disgorgement, a further resting period of six months precedes release, with exceptional vintages, such as 2008, held back for an extended four years.
Each Dom Pérignon vintage manifests the vision of its eponymous spiritual father, representing a unique creation showcasing the singular characteristics of its vintage. Striking a nuanced balance of ripeness, vibrancy, lightness, and intensity, these wines possess an enduring potential to age gracefully.
This devotion to vintage is evident in every aspect of Dom Pérignon's production. Sourcing only the finest grapes from the 17 Grands Crus and the Premier Cru of Hautvillers, each vintage is an intricate tapestry of nature's bounty and the indelible signature of Dom Pérignon. After an eight-year journey of refinement, each vintage comes to life, complete, seamless, and tactile, a testament to the transformative power of time, precision, and the playful audacity of the house.
