What do you get when you bring one of the most iconic American artists of the 20th century together with the renown of one of Champagne's iconic producers?
The Special Edition Jean-Michel Basquiat is one of the most visually captivating Special Editions we've encountered.

When the first case arrived at the store, the entire staff was mesmerized by the packaging, which comes in three color variants. Dom Pérignon's Special Edition Jean-Michel Basquiat is a masterpiece in its own right.
Of course, the truth is in the bottle. The 2015 DP is really exciting. We opened up a bottle in September and it was an instant hit. This is a vintage of Dom Pérignon that's full of energy and pure pleasure.
It's very likely that when all is said and done that the 2015 Dom Pérignon will be one of the high points of the vintage.
Antonio Galloni sums up the 2015 well when he simply calls it "terrific". In his review, he goes on to highlight the "gorgeous tension and backbone".
From the packaging to the wine, this is beautiful. Before closing, I should mention that this is a limited release, and I don't expect our modest allocation to stick around for very long.

Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media: "The 2015 Dom Pérignon is terrific. Bright and poised, the 2015 shows terrific energy. Citrus peel, white flowers, mint, white pepper and slate all race across the palate. There's gorgeous tension and backbone here, with bright saline notes that extend the mid-palate and finish. This is a fine showing in a vintage that has proven to be tricky. I am intrigued to see how the 2015 develops in the coming years."
