Lot 240 Details
MOËT & CHANDON CHAMPAGNE CUVÉE DOM PÉRIGNON ROSÉ P2 1996 (OC)

Champagne.

The 1996 Dom Pérignon Rosé P2 is showing beautifully, wafting from the glass that mingles aromas of dried fruits, raspberries and toasted bread with nuances of rose hips, peonies, smoke and spices. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, layered and complete, with a beautifully integrated spine of acidity, excellent concentration and a vinous profile, concluding with a long and iodine-inflected finish. There's a touch more breadth and dimension here than in the white Dom Pérignon P2 of the same vintage, but the two wines share a strong vintage signature this year. April 2020 Drink: 2020-2040 WA 96
