A Quest of Harmony

Dom Pérignon’s vision strives towards harmony as a source of emotion. Harmony in which its aesthetic and sensory values are played out: Precision, Intensity, Touch, Minerality, Complexity, completeness.

Dom Pérignon is always a vintage wine

All creative processes have their constraints. Dom Pérignon's constraint is the Vintage: Dom Pérignon can only be produced from the harvest of a single year. Dom Pérignon's ambition is to bear witness to each year, whatever the challenges may be. Dom Pierre Pérignon dares to put itself on the line, to take risks, to go as far as accepting that it will not declare the vintage. Dom Pérignon's creative legacy is this reinvention of its work with each vintage. Dom Pérignon Vintage is the culmination of the elaboration and creative processes. It embodies the vision. Dom Pérignon Vintage expresses itself fully in its three dimensions: The year: the character of the seasons The Plénitudes: evolution by successive windows of expression on the way of the long maturation on lees. The colour: White or Rosé. These three dimensions are inseparable, and no combination is quite like any other. Each has its own space and time. As such, Dom Pérignon can only be the sum total of all past Vintages, and those yet to come.

Dom Pérignon is always an assemblage

The assemblage is the foundation of the Dom Pérignon style. It is guided by timeless principles that have always taken precedence over winemaking techniques and their evolution. Dom Pérignon can only be made from a blend of grape varieties and terroirs: our goal has always been to create an enhanced whole with ever-more tension, rhythm, completeness and complexity. Dom Pérignon is striving for an ideal. The assemblage of Dom Pérignon is a perfect balance of black and white grapes. The paradox of opposite and complementary elements of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir create vibration and tension.

Dom Pérignon's complexity is based on a commitment to slow maturation

Dom Pérignon is designed to be confronted with time. Both the White and – remarkably – the Rosé are widely recognized for their impressive maturation potential. A triumph of non-oxidation and the mystery of maturation on the lees (of the yeast, which makes it effervescent), the wine goes through slow, subtle metamorphoses. The style of Dom Pérignon is perfected. This slow maturation is the price that has to be paid to make Dom Pérignon stand out as one of the most complex of all wines. It takes no fewer than eight years in the cellar before Dom Pérignon expresses its first plenitude.
