1996 Dom Pérignon Vintage Rosé

Description

This 1996 Vintage edition of Dom Pérignon Rosé features the vibrant notes of the Pinot Noir grapes, in a subtle balance with the Chardonnay grapes. It presents an amber colour and an aroma of malt which gives off subtle notes of nectarine and wild strawberries. It finishes with a light hint of sharp vanilla, which is given off by the bubbles.
According to Dom Pérignon’s Chef de Cave, it was the whimsical summer of 1996 and the high temperatures before the harvest which caused the unique ripening of the vines, which in turn gave the champagne a rare mix of power and acidity.
