Dom Pérignon, Vintage 2017

Dom Pérignon 2017 stands among the house’s most compelling releases in years — and one of its rarest. Awarded 97 points by Antonio Galloni, it is currently his highest-scoring Champagne of the 2017 vintage. Given that 2002 ranks among Dom Pérignon’s greatest vintages, the comparison speaks volumes - this is a seriously impressive release. What elevates it further is its sheer scarcity. Production amounts to roughly three months of global supply. Galloni notes that the 2017 is barely commercially viable, yet under Chef de Caves Vincent Chaperon, Dom Pérignon continues to bottle these wines as a true record of the year, even when quantities are vanishingly small. We’re very glad they do.

Taittinger Comtes de Champagne, Blanc de Blancs Brut 2013

Taittinger of course needs little introduction. Their dedication to excellence extends to every aspect of winemaking. From the hand-harvested grapes to the artful blending process and extended ageing in the cellars, each step is a testament to their pursuit of perfection. Taittinger's commitment to crafting exceptional Champagnes has earned them a place among the world's most respected wine producers. “We will never produce a large quantity of Comtes de Champagne because the technical characteristics we require so that this cuvée can be a very great wine are essentially unique in Champagne and very financially demanding. A triumphant blend of force and elegance, the Comtes de Champagne displays an eternal youth that it derives from the greatest Chardonnay of our province. Connoisseurs will appreciate it." Pierre-Emmanuel Taittinger
