Dom Perignon Vintage Magnum 2012 150cl Gift Boxed
Dom Pérignon 2012 Vintage Champagne in a Magnum format size of 150cl - the equivalent of two bottles.
Dom Pérignon's 2012 was an excellent yield. Dom Pérignon Vintage 2012 reveals a unique structure, resonating to the rhythm of controlled energy. Channelled by an acidity and bitterness that burst forth magnificently, it combines intensity, contained tautness and extreme contradictions.
The bouquet is tactile, subtly enticing us along a trail of powdery white flowers and nectarous apricot, followed by the freshness of rhubarb and mint, and the minerality of ash.

A year full of paradoxes for winemaking, 2012 gave birth to a great vintage, surmounting multiple challenges. A series of climate events descended upon the vineyards: frost in the winter and spring, torrential rains, hailstorms and cold spells while the vines were flowering, plus intense heat waves over the summer. A warm and dry climate alleviated any concerns as to the health of grapes, favoring the maturation of the fruit. The harvest begins on September 10.
The nose is full and varied, mingling flowers with fruit, then vegetal with mineral. The bouquet is tactile, subtly enticing us along a trail of powdery white flowers and nectarous apricot, followed by the freshness of rhubarb and mint, and the minerality of ash. Energy dominates on the palate. After a welcoming open the wine quickly becomes vibrant and then literally explodes with a surge of effervescence and a tonic sensation. Focused by acidic and bitter notes, the finish brings a penetrating tautness, marked by ginger, tobacco and toastiness.
Dom Pérignon Vintage 2012 can pair in a fantastic way with the minerality and freshness of seafood.
Vintage 2012 can also react with intense culinary sensations, such as spicy dishes, which are an interesting way to let the wine express itself.
