About This Champagne
The 2008 vintage of Dom Pérignon in a standard bottle with the Luminous label, which glows once switched on.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Grapefruit, lemon zest and white blossom, with gunflint, toast and chalk.
- Palate: Crisp and precise, pear and citrus over a creamy lees texture, the acidity running straight through the middle.
- Finish: Long, dry and mineral, closing on lemon peel and light toast.
Serving & Food
Chill to about 8°C. A tulip glass keeps the bubbles lively while giving the aromas space to build. Pair with salmon and hamachi sashimi, salt-baked prawns or a simple lemon and thyme roast chicken.
Good to Know
What's the blend? An exact 50/50 of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
Why was it held back? It got nearly nine years on the lees and was released after the 2009.
