Navnet på denne vin stammer fra den benediktiske abbed Pierre Pérignon, der menes at have opfundet champenoise-metoden. Kældermesteren Richard Geoffroys store arbejde gør resten, der sikrer den fornemme raffinering af smagen og den ekstreme komplethed af denne fremragende champagne. Dom Perignon er en stor champagne, synonymt med prestige, luksus og elegance. Den gennemgår en modning på mindst 72 måneder på gæren i flasken. Fra et teknisk synspunkt var 2010 en af de mest krævende årgange. Dom Pérignon 2010 viste sig trods det at blive en champagne af sjælden finesse, livlig, elegant, moden og vidunderlig mineralsk, perfekt balanceret i enhver komponent.
Farve: Lysegul
Perlage: Flamboyant, meget fine og meget vedholdende bobler.
Wine Advocate-Parker :
The finest release of this iconic cuvée since the 1996 vintage, the 2010 Dom Pérignon wafts from the glass with an incipiently complex bouquet of Meyer lemon, green apple, dried white flowers and oyster shell, with only subtle hints of the smoky, autolytic aromas that have been such a prominent signature of recent releases. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep and complete, its notable flesh and amplitude controlled by incisive acids, with a youthfully exuberant but elegant mousse and a long, beautifully delineated finish. Considering the sheer size of this cuvée, it's a remarkable achievement and a fitting release with which to conclude Richard Geoffroy's tenure as chef de cave. Given the 2010's intensity and balance, I suspect purists will be anticipating later disgorgements with lower dosage and more time on the lees with particular enthusiasm. Tasted three times, with consistent results.
