Champagne Dom Pérignon 2000
Champagne, FranceCitrus, lemon, floral, pear, quince, nutty, tobacco leaf, strawberry and mineral aromas. Fresh, crisp, creamy palate with fine mousse and good richness. Nutty, almond, rhubarb, strawberry, lemon, honey, quince, toasty, floral flavours. A touch fat but has good acidity and sugar balance with complexity. Finish is long with a toasty, honey, citrus finish. Very fine effort, slightly more forward in style but should improve over the next 3-7 years.Tasted: 20 December 2008Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $213.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
