    Overview

    Dom Pérignon Rosé Vintage 2009


    Introduction:
    Dom Pérignon Rosé Vintage 2009 is captivating with its intimate and caressing character.

    Full-bodied and enveloping, round and creamy, sweet and voluptuous... this is an especially exquisite release of Dom Pérignon Rosé. With dominant fruit flavours and aromas, it is a true embodiment of the 2009 harvest, and a vintage that's not to be missed.

    Assembled from full, mature and rich grapes that benefited from a warm, dry and sunny summer, and then transformed during nearly 12 years in the cellar, it displays all the aromatic nuances of pinot noir (raspberry, fig, strawberry and cherry) and the delicacy, mineral elegance and light notes of chardonnay.

    Tasting Notes:
    Dom Pérignon Rosé Vintage 2009 is captivating with its intimate and caressing character. A wine that is intensively alive, a true incarnation of the fruit of the harvest.

    After fleeting aromas of rose, orange oil and saffron, the bouquet becomes warmer, dominated by red fruit - raspberry and cherry - then somber touches of cassis and fig. Sweetness ultimately triumphs, with notes of gingerbread and licorice.

    The fruit is majestic, ripe, fleshy and profound. After a markedly smooth and round initial mouthfeel, the wine nestles in the heart of the palate, settling with a sort of intimately intense caress. The power is contained, and the dominant impression is consistency. Sapid sensations converge and persist, leaving the memory of their tactile imprint.

    Vintage 2009:
    The beginning of winter was particularly rigorous in 2009. The Champagne region saw intermittent snowfall, and temperatures remained quite low. Spring was warm but rainy. The weather did not encourage flowering and there was a threat of mildew. 

    The summer, despite stormy periods that raised concerns that the health of the vines might suffer, was dominated by sunshine, especially in August. The weather remained hot, dry and very sunny for five consecutive weeks. On September 4 a hailstorm hit the vineyards in Hautvillers, Verzenay and Chouilly. The summery weather returned the very next day, however, and the grapes continued to ripen in complete serenity.

    The harvest thus began on September 12 under absolutely idyllic conditions. The grapes showed exceptional health and their maturity, underlined by a wonderful aromatic expression, was superlative.

    Food & Wine Pairing:
    Dom Pérignon Rosé 2009 is radiant, its fruit appears with all its majesty, round, rich and generous. 

    The wine displays all the aromatic nuances of Pinot Noir - raspberry, fig, strawberry and cherry - exacerbated by the delicacy, mineral elegance and light notes of chardonnay. 

    The combination of iodine and vegetable products, weever fish, sea urchins, turnip greens, sumac or artichoke, is perfect to feel the duality of the wine, to bring out the aromatic nuances of the wine.
    Ingredients like sea Urchins, pork belly, kale or chilli pepper will reveal the lines of the wine: its acidity and tannic structure, hidden behind its fruit.
