"This is shaping up to be epic. The Pinot-rich, vinous style that was evident in the 2000 is amped up here. Despite the intense, sumptuous fruit, there is plenty of underlying structure. This is going to be a fascinating Champagne to follow. Even today, it is compelling."98 Points, Antonio Galloni, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Why to buy: The most sought-after, newest vintage of Dom Pérignon’s world-famous Rosé Champagne. After 9 years in the cellar, Dom Pérignon Rosé Vintage 2002 sharpens the paradoxes with this vibrant interpretation - ripe, rich and airy, mineral and sensual, ample and precise, inviting and mysterious. Beautifully persistent in the mouth, it deploys an airy yet powerful magnetism.
A Rosé vintage has perhaps never gone so far and attained such heights. “With Dom Pérignon Rosé Vintage 2002, we reach for the stars,” says Chef de Cave, Richard Geoffroy. And, with its great potential for aging, it will become even more stellar over time.
The backstory: Dom Pérignon releases small quantities of their wines when they reach a peak in their quality, and each bottle is sought after by collectors world-wide. A 30-bottle vertical of the Dom Pérignon Rosé Œnothèque was sold at auction in 2010, setting the world record for a single lot of Champagne and as the first HK$1 million lot of wine Sotheby’s ever sold in Hong Kong.
Characteristics: The wine’s bouquet is lilting and luminous, with a wide spectrum dominated by an orange-red glow. This complexity becomes deeper and more somber in the finish, with hints of smoke and black cherry. The wine has an assertive presence and is remarkably tactile, with creamy fleshiness and caressing intensity. The feeling of fullness stretches out and sustains the sappy, vibrant, crystalline note.
Expected maturity: 2015-2032
