✨ Technical Specifications
The Dom Pérignon Chef de Cave Edition 2024 Assortment Case represents the ultimate expression of the Maison's winemaking philosophy, curated by the Chef de Cave. Dom Pérignon's history is inextricably linked to the Benedictine monk Dom Pierre Pérignon, who in the 17th century set out to make 'the best wine in the world' at the Abbey of Hautvillers. This assortment showcases the dialogue between Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, sourced exclusively from Grand Cru vineyards and the historic Premier Cru of Hautvillers. Each bottle in this collection undergoes a slow, precise maturation on its lees, capturing the distinct tension, minerality, and complexity that define the Dom Pérignon style across its different stages of evolution, or 'Plénitudes'.
🍾 About the Producer
Dom Pérignon traces its lineage to the pioneering viticultural innovations of 17th-century Benedictine monk Dom Pierre Pérignon at the historic Abbey of Hautvillers, though the house was officially launched as Champagne's first prestige cuvée in 1921 (released in 1936) by Moët & Chandon (LVMH). Rooted across premier crus and historic grand crus in the Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne, and Côte des Blancs, the estate's vines flourish in pure Belemnite and Micraster chalk terroirs that impart profound minerality and tension. Guided by Chef de Cave Vincent Chaperon, Dom Pérignon operates exclusively as a vintage wine, crafted only in years capable of exceptional aging. Blending roughly equal parts Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, the house emphasizes reductive precision, reductive lees aging, and textural interplay without oak intervention. Alongside its flagship Vintage Brut and Rosé, the benchmark Plénitude releases (P2 and P3) reveal metamorphic secondary and tertiary complexity, exemplifying the pinnacle of Champagne's structural grandeur and longevity.
