2eme Plénitude (P2) Dom Pérignon 2003

The wine

This Champagne cuvée is exceptional. Matured for a very long time in the Maison’s cellar, 1- years to be precise, it expresses all the mastery and excellence of Dom Pérignon. You will undoubtedly fall for its liquid gold appearance, as well as its aromatic bouquet marked by notes of candied fruit, frangipane and gentle spices. It has a characterful palate and, energetic, it has good structure and a lovely minerality. A bottle to be aged, this Champagne is also a gastronomic wine, calling for the finest of dishes to accompany it.

About the Producer Dom Pérignon

Dom Perignon, a Benedictine monk, appointed cellarer in the Hautvillers Abbaye in 1668, marked his time in contributing to the development of champagne, originally designed to be a "still" wine (without bubbles). The advent of Napoleon, a friend of Jean-Remy Chandon in 1804, marks the beginning of an era of uninterrupted commercial success for Moët & Chandon, which is now globally renowned. "The" Dom Perignon, cuvee prestige of the house, is certainly the most famous champagne in the world. Sold from 1936 (the vintage 1921, produced only 300 copies), it experienced immediate worldwide success. This wine, bottled in a particular eighteenth-century flask-shaped bottle, is produced only in the best years. The volume of bottles of Dom Perignon produced is a secret jealously guarded by the LVMH group, now owners of Moët & Chandon.
