Champagne Dom Pérignon Millésimé Rosé Vintage 2006
Champagne, FranceDom is always complex and sophisticated, and this rosé is no exception. The fruits are red and wild, the palate dry and salty with a wealth of underbrush scents from dried thyme and rosemary to fennel. The palate is packed full of flavours from front to back, aided by persistently tiny mousse that animates all the components before a bitter finish. It is a great year, and there is little doubt this wine will live through a full twenty years in the bottle. The pinot noir and chardonnay blend is darkened by the addition of 20% still pinot, and finished with a 6 g/L dosage.Tasted: 26 June 2021Tasted by: Prices:
Champagne Dom Pérignon Millésimé Rosé Vintage 2006
Champagne, FranceWild raspberry, wild cherry imbues an ample salted brioche base, threaded with bergamot, red currants, dried florals, dried thyme, dried rosemary, toast, and hints of smoked salts. The palate is expansive, growing with time in the glass, while the fizz is gently, persistently pétillant rather than forwardly fizzy, contributing to this vinous, gastronomic wine. Sophisticated and expressive, Dom 2006 Rosé lingers long on the brooding, broad shouldered palate, with a vibrato that hums to a hinting bitter orange / espresso note. Pinot Noir (56%) and chardonnay is mellowed and deepened with the addition of 20% still pinot, and finished with 6 g/l dosage. This is the first time in the history of Dom Pérignon Rosé, born with the 1959 vintage, that five consecutive vintages have been released.Tasted: 04 November 2019Tasted by: Prices:
