The Dom Pérignon Vintage 2013, a vintage of extraordinary expression, is a pearl in the firmament of Champagne. Born from a vintage marked by a late harvest, this Champagne stands out for its elegance and complexity, a true triumph of nature and oenological art. The year 2013 saw a difficult start, with a cold and wet winter, followed by a rainy spring. However, the summer brought a turning point with ideal conditions, marking history as one of the sunniest in Champagne. This allowed the grapes to ripen impeccably, finding a perfect balance between acidity and roundness.

Genesis of a Work of Art

The creation of the Dom Pérignon Vintage 2013 is a sublime example of mastery in the art of Champagne. The blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay reveals itself in a harmonious union, with a bouquet that opens with citrus notes, then evolving into vegetal tones and ending with spicy accents. This olfactory sequence translates into a simple and clear elegance, which testifies to the purity and precision of the Dom Pérignon maison.

A Unique Sensoriality

On the nose, the Vintage 2013 offers a sophisticated and complex olfactory profile. Among its scents, the vibrant green of eucalyptus, mint and vetiver, the yellow-orange of mirabelle and apricot stand out, enriched by the sweetness of orange blossom. Darker notes of pepper, cardamom and liquorice combine with nuances of iodine and toasted aromas. On the palate, the Vintage 2013 is elegant, clear and precise, with an enveloping and ethereal attack that amplifies in a fine and silky texture, culminating in a saline and savory finish.

Perfect in combination with a diverse range of dishes, the 2013 Vintage reveals its character in combinations ranging from acidic fruit to citrus fruits, from shellfish to fish dishes, revealing new nuances and depths each time.

History and Tradition

Dom Pérignon, a name that evokes history and prestige, is synonymous with excellence in the world of Champagne. Founded by the Benedictine monk Dom Pierre Pérignon, a pioneer in 17th century winemaking techniques, the brand has spanned the centuries bringing with it mastery and innovation. The first vintage of Dom Pérignon dates back to 1921, which became known to the world in 1936, when it was served on the ship Normandie traveling to New York. Since then, Dom Pérignon has been a witness and protagonist of historical events, chosen for prestigious occasions such as the wedding of Lady Diana Spencer and Prince Charles in 1981.

The Dom Pérignon Vintage 2013 continues this tradition of excellence, offering an unparalleled tasting experience, a journey through the senses that celebrates the historic art of Champagne.
