Dom Perignon Rose 2008

Product description

When Dom Perignon chooses to create a rose, it is a radical declaration of freedom. Freedom to explore. Freedom to cast aside conventions and push the boundaries of creation. Dom Perignon Rose springs from this desire to dare, seizing the red of the Pinot Noir grape in its primal radiance, capturing its vital power in a bold, assertive assemblage. The bouquet bursts forth with raspberries and wild strawberries. Persistent powdery notes of iris and violet immediately meld with the fruit aromas. After breathing, greener nuances arrive, evoking privet, angelica and camphor tree. The initial sensations are tactile, full-bodied and silky as they unfold like a caress, gradually becoming bolder. The acidic foundation that is the signature of the vintage weaves into the structure of the pinot noir, vibrating the heart of the wine. The affirmed, persistent finish is redolent of peonies and white pepper.

99 Points - James Suckling

This shows incredible depth of fruit with strawberry, cherry and phenolics. Full-bodied and layered with an incredible, three-dimensional element to the wine. This is so transparent and dynamic with dark fruit, yet it remains vivid and bright. Refined and precise, it goes on and on. Really savoury, fresh and incredibly pinot-noir-like. What a wine. 

97 Points - Wine Spectator

An impeccably balanced and graceful sparkling rose, with a plushly creamy mousse. It's hard to tell where the firm spine of well-honed acidity and the expressive range of pureed raspberry, candied ginger, tangerine and lemon thyme flavours begin or end. A rich hint of smoky toasted brioche plays on the finish.

95 Points -Decanter

Offering up aromas of white flowers, red berries, toast and fresh pastry, Dom Perignon rose is medium to full-bodied, tense and vibrant, with a vinous texture and sapid nuances. Delicately phenolic, this is a pure and racy gastronomic Champagne that’s beginning to drink with style and concludes with a long and penetrating finish.
