Dom Perignon Vintage 1982

Dom Perignon Champagne is probably the best-known bubble in the world, named after the Benedictine monk intimately linked to the origins of Champagne itself. It was marketed in 1936 by Robert-Jean de Vogue with the idea of ​​creating a luxury Champagne and, to do so, he enclosed the family Moet 1921 Reserve in the historic bottle.

The first "real" Dom Perignon harvest will arrive in 1947. Today this historic Champagne is produced with only its own Grand Cru grapes and, in order to boast the label, it must guarantee an aging potential of at least 30 years. From the olfactory approach, Dom Perignon is intense, with the typical minerality of the maison in the foreground accompanied by smoky nuances. The notes of the Chardonnay also slowly reveal themselves, pleasantly buttery: in short, it is immediately defined as a great Champagne, capable of enhancing the typicality of the label.

Conceptually, Dom Pérignon only exists as a vintage. Dom Pérignon Vintage champagne is born from an extremely rigorous selection of the best terroirs of Champagne. Depending on the quality of the vintage, Dom Pérignon chooses to declare the vintage or not. In line with its ideals, Dom Pérignon Vintage champagne reveals itself after more than 8 years of processing and resting in the cellar.

The tasting is always very balanced between the finesse of the bubble, the roundness of the body and the richness of the taste, always noble and never over the top. A historically high-level Champagne, which never ceases to amaze despite the passing of the harvests.
