Dom Pérignon, 2000
A typically composed and classy Dom Perignon, very youthful though certainly not backward, this is thoroughly enjoyable now but there will still be plenty to come from it over the next few years. Long, refined tight-knit citrus and fruit zest, touches of dry stone with faint shades of spice and ripe guava. Beautfiully textured and completely unforced all the way throug to a long finish.
critic reviews
The 2000 Dom Pérignon is a gorgeous wine to drink now, as it is already showing quite a bit of aromatic and flavor complexity. Although the 2000 doesn’t have the multi-dimensional personality or structure of the very best DPs, it does offer tremendous drinking pleasure today. Hints of pastry, baked apple and mint add nuance, with a touch of reduction that lends an added kick of freshness. Ultimately, the 2000 is a very drinkable and delicious Dom Pérignon.
