✨ wine.spec_sheet
This exclusive release represents a brilliant intersection of fine winemaking and contemporary art, born from a collaboration between the historic house of Dom Pérignon and the iconic American artist Jeff Koons. Designed to house the exceptional 2004 vintage, the packaging and bottle design draw inspiration from Koons' 'Balloon Venus' sculpture, a modern interpretation of an ancient fertility symbol that echoes the creative energy and transformative nature of champagne. Inside the bottle is the legendary Dom Pérignon Brut, a precise blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir harvested from Grand Cru vineyards and the historic Premier Cru of Hautvillers. Aged for nearly a decade on its lees in the cool chalk cellars of Épernay, this cuvée delivers a perfect harmony of vibrant minerality, rich toasted brioche, and a silky, persistent finish that defines the house's vintage-only philosophy.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Named after the legendary 17th-century Benedictine monk who pioneered winemaking techniques at the Abbey of Hautvillers, Dom Pérignon is a world-renowned prestige Champagne house based in Épernay, France. Now owned by Moët & Chandon, the house is defined by its uncompromising commitment to vintage-only releases, meaning each bottling is crafted exclusively from the harvest of a single exceptional year. Composed of a harmonious blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, the wines undergo a minimum of eight years of cellar aging on the lees to develop their signature complexity, tension, and silky texture. The iconic Dom Pérignon Brut stands as the benchmark of this meticulous philosophy, celebrated globally for its precise minerality, vibrant acidity, and profound aging potential.
