Dom Perignon P2 Rose 1996

The Winery

Dom Pérignon

"If Dom Pérignon is the Porsche 911 Carrera of the wine world, then DP Rosé is the 911 Turbo"
-Jay McInerney, The Wall Street Journal

Dom Perignon, a Benedictine monk, was an innovative cellar master and winemaker in the seventeenth-century, whose unique techniques advanced the production and quality of Champagne. His obsession with consistency, precision and discipline helped him master the stages of production.

Perignon and his colleagues laid out essential foundations for the ‘champenoise’ method of critical varietals to create a second fermentation in the bottle that adds the distinct 'bubbliness' to Champagne. Now a brand of Champagne house Moët & Chandon, Dom Perignon continues to make vintage-only wines priding themselves by releasing Champagne in only optimal years.

Summary

Dom Pérignon P2 Rosé 1996 is a distinguished Champagne crafted from a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, including still red Pinot from renowned sites. This late-disgorged edition, aged on lees for over 15-20 years, showcases the remarkable structure and longevity of the 1996 vintage. The wine's aromatic profile features dried fruits, raspberries, and subtle notes of toasted bread, rose hips, and spices. On the palate, it is full-bodied and layered, with a harmonious balance of acidity and concentration, leading to a long, complex finish enriched with hazelnuts and citrus zest. This Champagne epitomizes elegance and depth, making it a treasured collectible.
