Dom Pérignon 2002 In 2019, there is that immediate evidence of beautifully ripe Chardonnay, all part of the enchantment. An absolutely heavenly nose, with such pure projection and a touch of dried apricots. On the palate, there is a lovely mineral tension, but with a softness behind it - all May hedgerows. The finesse of texture is a given, as is the creaminess and length. This is a platinum vintage, although Vincent Chaperon describes it as gold! The important thing is to drink and revel in it......
