✨ Technical Specifications
Dom Pérignon Rosé is a bold tribute to Pinot Noir, requiring a delicate balance between the structure of red wine and the classic tension of the house's Chardonnay. The 'Metamorphosis' limited edition, designed in collaboration with pioneering Dutch fashion designer Iris van Herpen, visually represents the slow, active transformation of the wine during its long cellar maturation on the lees. Sourced from Grand Cru vineyards and the historic Premier Cru of Hautvillers, this rosé cuvée is crafted only in exceptional vintage years. It incorporates a significant proportion of still red Pinot Noir wine, resulting in a copper-pink hue, vibrant red fruit aromas, smoky minerality, and a structured, velvety palate that evolves magnificently over decades.
🍾 About the Producer
Named in honor of the 17th-century Benedictine monk who pioneered foundational sparkling winemaking techniques at the historic Abbey of Hautvillers, Dom Pérignon stands as the archetype of prestige vintage Champagne. Owned by Moët Hennessy, the house strictly produces only vintage wines, releasing cuvées exclusively in harvest years deemed truly exceptional. Crafted from a seamless blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir sourced from Grand Cru vineyards and the historic Premier Cru of Hautvillers, each vintage undergoes a minimum of eight years of lees aging. The signature Dom Pérignon Brut, along with its rare Rosé and extended-aging Plénitude editions, is celebrated worldwide for its immaculate balance of youthful freshness, mineral precision, and deep, autolytic complexity.
