Moet Chandon Dom Perignon Rose 2004 CONFIRM 2004 VINTAGE

Pinot Noir Chardonnay French Champagnes, Epernay France
The rare and exclusive marque of Dom Perignon Rosé is only ever made in limited quantities. A continuation of the repute and quality of this elite Monopole, so highly praised by cognescenti. After a decade in bottle, Dom Perignon Rosé takes on wonderfully toasty aromas and a finesse that is unequalled. The vintage must always be one of excellence, to deliver grapes of extraordinary purity, expression and intensity. Dom Perignon makes the most desirable Rosé in the world, synonymous with glamour, sophistication and success.
Dom Perignon is named after a famous monk who was the most important early influence in the development of Champagne. It was not the first Champagne to use his name, as wineries employed it for centuries. Unfortunately for them they did not register the name, Dom Perignon, as their trademark. A rigorous selection of fruit in the vineyard and component wines under the Chais ensures that only the best parcels are included into this exquisite Cuvee. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are used in roughly equal proportions, Dom Perignon Rosé shows incredible finesse, perfect balance and ample weight, a Champagne of exquisite succulence.
Deeply hued, glinting with amber and copper, a paradox is that Dom Perignon Rosé is never really pink. Initial floral nose gives way to black cherry and candied citrus peel, complemented by cocoa and smoky accents. Flawless, an achievement of perfect classicism, dominated by a sensation of balance, consistency and integration. Brilliant, fleshy fruitiness, effortlessly evolving, finishing creamy, tactile, aerial and precise.

Moet Chandon
For over two centuries the House of Moet & Chandon has been growing it's vines in the Champagne region

Moet & Chandon is forever seeking to harness the riches of the unique terroir of Champagne and thus produce truly outstanding wines. In 1927, through the influence of Moet & Chandon, the Champagne vineyard was awarded an Appellation d'Origine, which subsequently became one of the first ever AOCs in 1935.

Moet Chandon

The history of vines in Champagne is inseparably linked to the deep chalk soil. It retains heat from the sun and moisture from the rain which it relases gradually, acting as a natural regulator. The symbiosis of grape and climate continues as the wine matures in the maze of the centuries-old chalky cellars.

The grape varieties grown are eminently suited to the climate and soil, and reflect the unique growing conditions. Chardonnay gives the blend freshness, elegance, finesse and vivacity. Pinot Noir provides fruitiness, body, strength and persistence. Pinot Meunier offers roundness and bouquet which admirably complement the other two.

Mild Atlantic breezes alternate with continental rigours. The Champagne vineyards, the most northerly in France, are regularly threatened by storms, hail and late frosts. The grapes mature slowly in this climate and by transcending these factors, the wonder of champagne is born.

Moet Chandon

All great wines are the product of the perfect union of soil and climate. But in Champagne, the human factor is more vital than in any other winegrowing area. Over the course of the centuries, Moet & Chandon winegrowers have held their own in the face of tumultuous historic events and the whims of nature. They have fashioned the soil and vines into exemplary vineyards. Moet & Chandon scientists and oenologists are at the leading edge of viticultural research.

Moet & Chandon wines are produced by a team of some ten oenologists, each with complementary experience acquired in a range of wine-growing regions around the world. The driving forces behind the team are its shared expertise, its combined sensitivities and its ongoing commitment to keeping abreast with trends, in particular through travelling and meeting with fellow wine experts.

Indeed, it is this guiding aim which determines the oenologists' decisions on which, in turn, the wine's final shape will depend.

The assemblage or blend of grape varieties is critical in determining the champagne's distinctive style. It is largely during this phase of the production process that a unifying character emerges, the complete, well-rounded and radiant personality which distinguishes all of Moet & Chandon's wines. The range from which the team can choose includes over 150 crus from the house's own vineyard as well grapes purchased from other wine growers. The three Champagne varieties, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay, continue to be the wine's mainstays, offering their complementary features and specific synergies.
