96 Robert Parker
The 2002 Dom Perignon is at first intensely floral, with perfumed jasmine that dominates the bouquet. With time in the glass the wine gains richness as the flavors turn decidedly riper and almost tropical. Apricots, passion fruit and peaches emerge from this flashy, opulent Dom Perignon. The wine’s volume makes it approachable today, but readers in search of more complexity will want to cellar this for at least a few years to allow for some of the baby fat to drop off. Geoffroy describes the vintage as very ripe and adds that some of the Chardonnay showed the ill-effects of the hot growing season in the somewhat burned, dehydrated fruit that came in that year. <br/>

A rich and smoky Champagne in a graceful package, with a beautiful, fine-grained texture to it and layers of flavor—biscuit, candied lemon peel, coffee liqueur, chamomile, pine, crystallized honey and wood smoke. This is the haute couture of the Champagne world—all about elegance, texture and attention to detail.
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.
