2010 Cuvee Dom Perignon, Moet and Chandon

Moët & Chandon

Undoubtedly the most recognisable champagne brand in the world, Moët and Chandon in quality terms is “back on song” after a period
making less than memorable wines. Dom Pérignon remains the benchmark luxury champagne cuvée, and we are delighted this year to have

been given an allocation of both the Limited Release Dom Pérignon Oénothèque 1995 and the Dom Pérignon Rosé 1998.

Tasting Note

Delicious Dom, a delicate bouquet of pastel flowers, a handful of candied fruits and a scattering of toast, hay and liquorice.

Wine Making

The core of the blend is eight historical Grands Crus — Aÿ, Bouzy, Verzenay, Mailly, Chouilly, Cramant, Avize, Le Mesnil — plus the legendary Hautvillers Premier Cru. Dom Pérignon also has the unique privilege of being able to select grapes from all 17 Grands Crus of Champagne.
The 2008 vintage was magnificent in Champagne and regarded as one of the best vintages at Dom Perignon with the cuvee requiring a little more time in bottle to express itself fully.

Food Matching

Although a glass to be savoured on its own it also is exceptional with fresh Lobster, caviar & crab. Also lending itself to lemon and herb sauces. Fried fish would also be a classic match.
