Brut Dom Pérignon 2006

Dom Pérignon, a Benedictine monk, appointed cellarer in the Hautvillers Abbey in 1668, marked his time in contributing to the development of champagne, originally designed to be a "still" wine (without bubbles). The advent of Napoleon in 1804, a friend of Jean-Remy Chandon, marks the beginning of an era of uninterrupted commercial success for Moët & Chandon, which is now globally renowned. "The" Dom Pérignon, cuvee prestige of the house, is certainly the most famous Champagne in the world.
Sold from 1936 (the vintage 1921, produced only 300 copies), it experienced immediate worldwide success. This wine, bottled in a particular eighteenth-century flask-shaped bottle, is produced only in the best years. The volume of bottles of Dom Pérignon produced is a secret jealously guarded by the LVMH group.
Other creations complete the collection, such as the rosé cuvée, a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir offering red-fruit aromatics, candied citrus and subtle empyreumatic notes; Dom Pérignon Plénitude 2 (P2) marks a new peak in the life of the Vintage cuvée, released after an extended period of lees ageing with late disgorgement, typically after 12 to 15 years in the cellar. As for Plénitude 3 (P3), it stands at the pinnacle of its expression, released only after 25 to 40 years of cellar ageing.
