Product details

For 2010, declaring a vintage was a daunting challenge. Winter frosts and a cool spring were reminders of the vineyard’s northerly latitude. The summer was hot, but not excessively so, and infrequent rain confirmed a particularly dry year. Suddenly, in mid-August, everything changed. The equivalent of two months of rain fell in just two days. With the heat and the water, maturation was fast and generous. The grapes had an elevated balance, at the same time sweet and acidic, but some parcels had to be left.

Tasting notes

Vintage 2010 will accompany tropical and floral ingredients such as rose, peach, granadilla and tamarind. The wine will harness the dense flesh of fish such as sea bass, bream, turbot and scallops just as much as it will marry the mineral character of turbot skin and seaweed.

DOM PIERRE PÉRIGNON

In 1668, Dom Pierre Pérignon, a Benedictine monk, was appointed procurator at the Abbey of Hautvillers. At a time when everything was guided by empirical methods, Dom Pierre Pérignon developed revolutionary techniques for viticulture and winemaking based on precise rules. Father Pérignon modernized the abbey, restored its vineyard, and set about to make "the best wine in the world". The "wine of Father Pérignon" became one of the most sought-after wines in France. It was served at Versailles and enjoyed by none other than Louis XIV. Profoundly inspired, his vision revolutionized winemaking with standards that remain at the heart of all champagne wines today. The legacy of Dom Pierre Pérignon continues to nourish Dom Pérignon's creative vision.
