*Dom P*é*rignon 2008 *Nose ring excluded*

Lenny Kravitz elevates the iconic label by borrowing from the craft of goldsmiths to work hammered metal on the surface of the shield, creating a patina that lends the metal an inalterable contemporary vibe.

“I feel like part of the Dom Pérignon family and I have been fortunate to have become involved with this iconic brand with a storied history. This has inspired me to create things that will continue that story”.
Please inquire for purchasing options.

“The best Dom since 2002. A vintage with very restrained, powerful style that has been released non-sequentially after the 2009. This has a lighter stamp of highly curated, autolytic, toasty aromas than many recent releases. Instead, this delivers super fresh and intense aromas of lemons, grapefruit and blood-orange peel. Incredible freshness here. The palate has a very smoothly delivered, berry-pastry thread with light, sweet spices, stone fruit and fine citrus fruit. This really delivers. Drink now or hold.Rated 98/100.”

Andy Warhol was a big fan of Dom Pérignon Champagne, so much that in 1981 he and 19 of his friends made a plan to buy 2,000 bottles, keep them in a hidden location, and pop all 2,000 bottles to ring in the new millennium.
In a tribute to the pop-art legend, Dom Pérignon teamed up with Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design in London for this limited-edition.
As fast as it arrived, this magnificent blue labeled bottle was tucked away in our temperature and humidity controlled cellars.
Please inquire for purchasing options.

“The 2002 Dom Pérignon is at first intensely floral, with perfumed jasmine that dominates the bouquet. With time in the glass the wine gains richness as the flavors turn decidedly riper and almost tropical. Ripe apricots, passion fruit and peaches emerge from this flashy, opulent Dom Pérignon. The wine’s volume makes it approachable today, but readers in search of more complexity will want to cellar this for at least a few years to allow for some of the baby fat to drop off. Geoffroy describes the vintage as very ripe and adds that some of the Chardonnay showed the ill-effects of the hot growing season in it the somewhat burned, dehydrated fruit that came in that year. This bottle was disgorged in July, 2009. To be released summer 2010. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2032. Rated 96/100.”
