{"product_id":"dom-perignon-2017","title":"Dom Perignon 2017","description":"\u003cp\u003eDom Pérignon Vintage 2017 is not just a champagne to drink, but one to experience: a deeply expressive, intensely styled release from one of Champagne’s most iconic houses. Crafted from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, it reflects a challenging growing season shaped into a wine of remarkable character, precision, and elegance. As one of the smallest productions in the house’s history, the 2017 vintage carries both rarity and distinction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, Dom Pérignon 2017 shows a darker, more concentrated profile than many recent vintages, with a fine, persistent mousse and a polished golden hue. The nose opens with citrus, dried apricot, toasted brioche, hazelnut, and subtle hints of cocoa and smoke, all signatures of the house’s reductive, layered style.\n\nOn the palate, it is silky and vibrant, with a creamy texture that feels almost weightless yet firmly structured. Ripe fruit is continually lifted by vivid acidity, leading to a long, energetic finish marked by candied citrus and a refined mineral edge. While already captivating, it also has the structure to evolve beautifully in bottle over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2017 growing season in Champagne was defined by dramatic contrasts: spring frost, a hot and dry summer, and late-season rain created difficult conditions in the vineyard. Chardonnay emerged with exceptional maturity, while Pinot Noir required very strict selection, resulting in a low-yield vintage of impressive concentration and purity. Vinification follows Dom Pérignon’s meticulous house style, emphasizing precision, balance, and the layered complexity that comes from extended ageing on the lees.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a champagne that deserves thoughtful pairings, such as oysters, lobster, scallops, caviar, sushi, or delicate poultry dishes with a rich sauce. It also works beautifully with truffle dishes, mature hard cheeses, or simply as a refined aperitif. Serve chilled at around 8–10°C, and while decanting is generally not necessary, allowing it a few minutes in the glass can help reveal its full aromatic depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDom Pérignon is produced by Champagne Moët \u0026amp; Chandon, one of the most historic and influential names in Champagne.
