This is an impressive wine that has that ‘wow’ factor

(a little known 1er that sits directly above Chambertin-Clos de Bèze made from vines planted in 1973)

I very much like the precision and sense of verve here – note however that patience will be required

the 2012 Châteauneuf du Pape Cuvee Réservée is a classic

is a wine that is not only built-to-age but one that is going to need plenty of it

Moet & Chandon, Dom Perignon other_regions This is an impressive wineThe 2008 Dom Prignon 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 Prignon since 1996,
