This is a super Champagne with roses strawberries and orange peel on the nose but then it's medium-boded with a raciness and beauty. Drink or hold. This shows incredible depth of fruit with strawberry cherry and phenolics. Full-bodied and layered with an incredible three-dimensional element to the wine. This is so transparent and dynamic with dark fruit yet it remains vivid and bright. Refined and precise it goes on and on. Really savory fresh and incredibly pinot-noir-like. What a wine. 13 years of maturation in the bottle. So drinkable now but it will age for many years ahead.
An impeccably balanced and graceful sparkling rosé with a plushly creamy mousse. It's hard to tell where the firm spine of well-honed acidity and the expressive range of pureed raspberry candied ginger tangerine and lemon thyme flavors begin or end. A rich hint of smoky toasted brioche plays on the finish. Drink now through 2033. Published on November 15 2021
The 2008 Dom Pérignon Rosé is magnificent. Rich and deep in the glass the 2008 offers up an exotic mélange of aromas and flavors. Sweet red cherry mint orange peel and rose petal all grace this beguiling beauty. Bright acids and a little less still red Pinot (21%) than in most recent editions yields a Rosé that is delicate and light on its feet with less of the vinous intensity that marked vintages such as 2006. There is a classic feeling of austerity in the 2018 that is mesmerizing. (Originally published in May 2021) (Drink between 2026-2048)

Cool ruby hue that isn't deep though perhaps just a bit deeper than a typical oeil de perdrix shade. An exuberantly fresh and bright nose speaks freely of various red fruits along with plenty of citrus quinine and a pretty floral hint while the yeast influence is relatively subdued at least for now. There is fine volume to the solidly concentrated flavors that are supported by a very fine yet quite fine effervescence that imparts both fine delineation as well as a certain power that seems to build from the mid-palate to the explosive finish. This is superb and only getting better each time I am privileged to enjoy it. As to maturity while it's sufficiently far along that it's no vinous crime to open one I would su
