There is something absolutely magical about 2008 Dom Pérignon.
There is little doubt that it will go down as one of the great Champagnes of the past fifty years. It is simply epic in its grace and extraordinary complexity.
The 2008 delivers a laser-like focus and impeccable class. The balance and harmony flirts with perfection. There's a regal intensity and exhilarating tension.
This is destined to be legendary Champagne. Everything is in place for it to age beautifully. The 2008 has become hard to find in quantity and at good pricing. I'm very happy to have landed this parcel.

Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media:
"The 2008 Dom Pérignon is once again stunning. More than anything else, I am surprised by how well the 2008 drinks given all the tension and energy it holds. Then again, that is precisely what makes 2008 such a unique vintage – namely that the best wines are so chiseled and yet not at all austere. Lemon peel, almond, mint, smoke and crushed rocks are all finely sculpted, but it is the wine’s textural feel, drive and persistence that elevate it into the realm of the sublime. The 2008 will be even better with time in the cellar, but it is absolutely phenomenal even today, in the early going. Three recent bottles have all been nothing short of magnificent."
