Dom Pérignon 2010 Brut Champagne 1.5L

Harsh… contrasted… perilous… For 2010, declaring a vintage was a daunting challenge. Winter frosts and a cool spring were reminders of the vineyard’s northerly latitude. The summer was hot, but not excessively so, and infrequent rain confirmed a particularly dry year. Suddenly, in mid-August, everything changed. The equivalent of two months of rain fell in just two days. With the heat and the water, maturation was fast and generous. The grapes had an elevated balance, at the same time sweet and acidic, but some parcels had to be left.
