| Aroma | complex aromatic flavour profile combining intense roasted and cocoa notes, balanced by delicate floral aromas of lime blossom, jasmine and peony. Elevated by a bouquet of spices such as aniseed and cardamom, Dom Pérignon 2015 also offers a fruity, botanical freshness, with subtle hints of orange and green papaya. Initial roasted / cocoa notes, evolving into floral notes of linden, jasmine, and peony. Spicy overtones (aniseed, cardamom), fresh citrus peel, green papaya, and botanical freshness. |
| Palate | The 2015 vintage wine is characterised by its breadth and delicacy, offering a unique sensory experience. Notes of peach, nectarine, citrus and gentian create a harmonious blend, giving the wine a rich texture and a diverse aromatic palate. Starts delicate then expands: fresh peach and nectarine, citrus, gentian bitterness, touches of toasted bread, smoke, iodine, and herbs. Creamy texture with energy and tension. Medium to full-bodied, layered, and structured, it’s enveloping and round with a delicate phenolic mid-palate that underlines chalky dry extracts. |
| Finish | Elegant and persistent: chalky minerality, saline notes, phenolic bitterness, spice, and lasting citrus & toast echo. Concluding with a sapid, penetrating finish with gastronomic bitterness. |
