Dom Pérignon is vintage champagne only. Each Vintage wine is created from the finest grapes grown in one single year. Reinventing itself by interpreting the unique character of the seasons. Daring not to release a Vintage if the harvest does not meet its ideal. After at least eight years of elaboration in the cellars, the wine then embodies the perfect balance of Dom Pérignon, its greatest promise. This is Dom Pérignon Vintage, the Plénitude of harmony.

Bringing together two creative forces within their own respective fields is this limited edition bottle of Champagne – an enduring project from Dom Pérignon and Lady Gaga. The 2010 vintage represents a battle won against the forces of nature thanks to a dose of inspiration and a whole lot of mastery, with the final result offering a vigorous, graceful balance and an earthy depth that’s felt on the palate.

A pretty DP now with richness and freshness, showing dried-lemon and light apricot character. Some pineapple, too. It’s full-bodied and grows on the palate, with intensity and maturity. Goes on for a long time. This is nicely framed and focused. One for the cellar. Drink or hold. Rating: 98 Points; James Suckling
