CRITIC REVIEWS
Antonio Galloni
The 2008 Dom Perignon remains one of the all-time greats here. No longer a young Champagne, the 2008 has begun moving into its first plateau of maturity. Baked apple tart, citrus confit, marzipan and lightly honeyed overtones are front and center. A touch of reduction always present in 2008 adds freshness and energy.
William Kelley
The 2008 Dom Perignon continues to show very well, offering up a pretty bouquet of Anjou pear, fresh peach, citrus oil, fresh pastry, smoke and iodine. On the palate, it's full-bodied, lively and incisive, with an elegantly textural attack and a creamy core of fruit that's underpinned by a bright but nicely integrated spine of acidity. The finish is long, saline and well-defined. As I wrote earlier this year, this is the finest Dom Perignon since 1996, Richard Geoffroy's push for additional ripeness working well with the late-maturing, high-acid vintage. While it can be appreciated young, the 2008 will really start to blossom with five or six years of bottle age.

First 'Plenitude' released after more than nine years on lees. Rich, complex nose with a certain almost-sweet lemon-cream sensation before great texture of freshness and zip. Very complete with so much going on and an extraordinarily long aftertaste. A really lovely champagne. Another great 2008, along with the Cristal Rose 2008. (JR)
