Dom Perignon 2006 Rose Champagne 750ml

Product Description

Dom Perignon Rose reveals the paradox of boldness and harmony resulting from over 9 years of elaboration. Dom Perignon has a creative ambition: the quest for harmony as a source of emotion. All creative processes have their limitations. For Dom Perignon, it's vintage - an absolute commitment to representing the character of the harvest for a single year, whatever challenges it brings, even going as far as not declaring a vintage. The production of Dom Perignon is a dialogue with nature itself, allowing it to express the nuances of the vineyards and the seasons with sensitive and constant attention. This living process is a matter of mastery and of time, which magnifies and reveals the vintage. Time is fundamental in the Dom Perignon equation, just like the vineyard, the seasons, the expertise: the active ageing time spent on lees, exalting the blending of different elements that complement one another and bring out a new energy. Dom Perignon Rose is committed to bringing out the thrilling red character of its Pinot Noir. This means taking risks and going beyond traditional Dom Perignon territory. Only the blending process allows us to go this far, to create tension between the characteristics of Dom Perignon Rose, to the point of contradiction. The ten years of maturation on lees in cellars protect the red character of the Pinot Noir, to at last reveal it in all its glory: playful, spiritual, vibrant, complex, mysterious. Dom Perignon Rose Vintage 2006 comes from the harvest of a warm, dry year marked by the contrasts: the intensely hot July, the cool, damp August, and the heat of September. The vintage was saved by this last heatwave. Dom Perignon Rose Vintage 2006 mesmerizes with its ripe and complex bouquet, with opening notes of dark spices and cocoa, followed by the fruity flavours of roasted fig and apricots and candied orange. The fullness of this wine is striking on the palate. Its intensity and ripeness set the tone through the sweetness and bite of the flavours. The silky mouthfeel melts into a smooth, tight, and grainy structure with just a hint of vegetal flavours. This wine expresses an appealing saline character.
