Dom Perignon, Rose 1996 Dom Perignon, Rose 1996 Lots 315-316: Packed in individual presentation cases 55% Pinot Noir, 45% Chardonnay. The nose is all peat and malt, turning to wild strawberries and nectarine honey. Becomes increasingly haunting with air. Damp earth then creeps in. A taste like vanilla ice. Rose petals and rosewater. Great delicacy, which (almost) masks the power. SS. See illustration Lot 315 12 bts (4 oc) Lot 316 12 bts (4 oc) per lot: USD 3000-4000 Without a doubt, the iconic prestige cuvee of Champagne. The style goes right back to the first Dom Perignon, the 1921 launched for New Year's Eve 1936 on the French luxury liner Le Normandie. Drawn from an astounding 600 hectares of Grands Crus, it has the additional advantage of being made by the brilliant Richard Geoffroy. DP, as it is fondly known, has enormous eclat and depth and the ability to age with grace, for the ever-growing number of wine lovers who adore mature Champagne. It is as fascinating to compare vintages of DP as with Bordeaux top chateaux. SS. Quantity: 1
