Dom Perignon Vintage 2006 Champagne Michael Riedel Limited Edition (75cl, 12.5%)

Dom Perignon Vintage 2006 is a Brut champagne of 51% Chardonnay and 49% Pinot Noir, matured for eight years on its lees. This edition carries a design by the German artist Michael Riedel, who layered the letters D and P hundreds of times across the box and bottle labels. The nose opens with fresh almond and harvest fruit, then candied lemon, dried fruit and darker smoky, toasted notes. The palate is silky and energetic, warm and deep, with a pleasing bitterness and hints of iodine and salt. The finish is long and mineral, with lingering citrus.
