Dom Pérignon
Dom Pérignon, 2008
$340
For nearly a century now, Dom Perignon has been the reference point in Champagne. But over the last couple decades, the wines have reached a new level. Dramatically improved farming and winemaking have caused the quality at Dom to rise and rise some more. We have a batch of the 2008, a near-perfect Champagne vintage and an all-time great for Dom Pérignon.
Here's what you should know about it:
- Dom Pérignon is only produced as a vintage Champagne. And those vintages only come about when conditions are ideal, meaning Dom doesn’t release a wine about four times per decade.
- Dom tastes smoky, chiseled, and vibrant when young. Over time, the flavors become more savory and the texture becomes softer and more luxurious.
- The 2008 is one of the greatest-ever vintages of Dom Pérignon.
As sommeliers, we often get asked, “What’s the best wine on the list?”
