Dom Perignon 2002 P2 75cl / 12.5%

A bottle of Dom Pérignon 2002 P2. This release, the second 'Plénitude' of Dom Pérignon, is a late disgorged bottling and the result of 16 years of lees ageing rather than seven years which the standard release sees.

'Released April 2017, disgorged May 2016, so 16 years on lees and, as it’s the same wine as P1, the same blend of 52% Chardonnay, 48% Pinot Noir, but the dosage for P2 is lower: in this case 3–4g/l. Richer and creamier on the nose than P1 2000. Crème fraiche richness on the palate with cereal and popcorn flavours, immediately followed by an intense freshness with tauter citrus and spice flavours and an oyster-shell mineral complexity. Richer, deeper, more intense and yet more dynamism than P1.....Very impressive.' Joanna Simon
