Dom Pérignon is produced on premises in Épernay and is based on a core of grand cru villages, including the oldest vines of the premier cru of Hautvillers, the historical and spiritual home of Dom Pérignon. 'The Dom' is a wine of tension, power and long-aging endurance and has been the vision of the talented Richard Geoffroy, Chef de Cave, for over two and a half decades. Pierre Pérignon's ambition to make 'the best wine in the world' is embodied by Dom Pérignon Rosé, a jewel of amber, copper, orange and gold created with red wine from exceptional Pinot Noir grapes.
The year 2002 was marked by a warm, dry spring and long sunny stretches with rainy spells. Just before harvest, a final sunny interlude, perfect and unexpected, made it easy to forget the earlier rain. After 10 years in the cellar, Dom Pérignon Rosé 2002 sharpens the paradoxes with this vibrant interpretation, at once luminous and dark, ripe and rich. Beautifully persistent in the mouth, it deploys an airy yet powerful magnetism.
The colour is strikingly pale with a vibrant pink tint. The wine's bouquet offers pomegranate, ripe strawberries and a wisp of pipesmoke. On the palate, the wine is remarkably tactile, with a creamy texture inviting flavours of cherry kernel and roast pecan nuts. A Rosé vintage has perhaps never gone so far and attained such great heights whilst harnessing a great potential for aging; it will become even more stellar over time. "With Dom Pérignon Rosé 2002, we reach for the stars." - Richard Geoffroy, Chef de Cave
Grape Varieties: 60% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay
Dosage: 6 to 7 g/L
The 2002 vintage Dom Pérignon Rosé has been aptly titled the Dark Jewel, as a result of it's deliciously decadent amber color, which has just enough hints of copper to make it interesting.
