Critics scores
96 By Robert Parker
The 1995 Dom Perignon Oenotheque is the second release of this wine, and was disgorged in 2005. This silky-textured Champagne reveals breathtaking finesse, elegance and clarity in its perfumed bouquet, with delicate notes of pears and roasted nuts that add further complexity. The finish goes on and on. This mind-bending Champagne possesses all of the qualities of profoundness, most importantly the ability to develop beautifully in the glass and the potential to acquire even more depth in bottle over the coming years. It is a stunner. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2028.
Producer
Dom Pérignon
Dom Pérignon is quite possibly the most iconic Champagne in the world. Tracing its roots back to the 17th century, when the monk, Dom Pierre Pérignon declared his ambition to create “the best wine in the world”. Today, he is known as the father of Champagne. He spent almost 50 years making the world’s first Champagne in the Abbey of Saint Pierre d’Hautvillers. During this time he set the ten founding vinification principles required in Champagne production. Three centuries later, Dom Pérignon stands as the planet’s most recognized luxury Champagne brands. The first vintage of Dom Pérignon was produced in 1921 and became the first prestige cuvée for the house. Owned by the fine-wines and spirits group, LVMH, Richard Geoffroy has been the Chef de Cave for the brand since 1990. Geoffroy alone is responsible for deciding whether or not to declare a Dom Pérignon Vintage. Made from the very best grapes, each vintage of Dom Pérignon is unique, showing notable transparencies between the varying climatic conditions. The alliance between ripeness, vibrancy, lightness and intensity in each bottle gives the wine the ability to age with suppleness and elegance.
