Plenitude P2 2004
Dom Pérignon champagne owes its name to the famous monk and procurator of Hautvillers Abbey in 1668, Pierre Pérignon (known as Dom Pérignon). Legend has it that Pierre Pérignon discovered what is now known as the "méthode champenoise". According to anecdote, he taught this method to Benedictine Thierry Ruinart in 1669, enabling Ruinart to make history as the first champagne house in 1729. Since 1 January 2019, Vincent Chaperon has succeeded Richard Geoffroy as Chef de Caves at Dom Pérignon.

Ingredients & Allergens
Both light and intense, Dom Pérignon Vintage 2004 Plénitude 2 unfolds with a persistent smoothness. The Vintage Champagne matured for 18 years, gaining depth and structure, and finally reached its second stage of maturity - Plénitude 2.
After a volatile 2003, characterised by frost and a historic heatwave, 2004 proved to be a year of recovery and calm. Each season passed with ease into the next.
A cooler August was followed by a few weeks of dry heat that characterised the vintage. With the energy reserves of the previous year, the vines developed impeccably and produced a generous harvest of ripe grapes.
The grapes of the 2004 vintage are restrained, but are more prominent in Plénitude 2. Grapefruit and blood orange give way to fig. The longer maturation period on the lees refines the minerality of the vintage. It gives it the special, multi-faceted bouquet that characterises Dom Pérignon: cocoa, mocha, roasted notes, brioche and honey accents.
The wine performs a balancing act between tension and weightlessness. Its extreme precision is tactile, dark and chiselled. It remains racy and juicy with beautiful liquorice notes.
