The phenomenal expression of a radiant vintage. The 2014 vintage compromises 55% Pinot Noir and 45% Chardonnay, 87% of which are sourced from Grand Crus and Premier Crus vineyards. Aged for 5+ years on the lees, this elegant vintage is radiant and intense.
The nose delivers notes of orange blossom, apricot and brioche with a lovely toasted almond finish and the palate is vibrant and fresh with flavours of orange and spice.

The 2008 Cristal is a perfect wine, and Champagne simple does not get any better. This incredible wine offers a beautiful perfume of clean, crisp fruits, layers of complexity in its toasted spice and white flowers, and an utterly seamless, yet powerful style on the palate.
This is a rich, decadent expression of Cristal yet it’s still crystalline and elegant, with no sensation of weight, and it just glides over the palate. Haut Couture at its finest and this majestic, profound, legendary Cristal can be drunk anytime over the coming 2-3 decades.

Warm, gourmand and exotic, this champagne charms the nose with its bright aromas. Touches of candied fruits, frangipane and sweet spices follow refined notes of saffron. Gradually, the aromatic bouquet becomes more mysterious, more restrained, evolving iodised and saline notes.
It is, however, on the palate that Dom Pérignon 2002 Vintage Plénitude 2 expresses itself to the fullest, revealing a remarkable opulence, as well as an airy grace reminiscent of the light movements of a ballerina. With great sensuality and depth, the palate offers bright fruit, further enhanced by an intense energy.

From the legendary harvest of 1996, this vintage Cristal is filled with floral, perfumed fruit and vibrant minerality. Its intense, honeyed flavours penetrate the palate and are backed with piercing acidity. It’s an incredibly expressive cuvée, combining citrus fruits, biscuit and hazelnut notes, enmeshed in the creamy texture.
A solid champagne with great structure for ageing.
