Dom Pérignon 2012 is an exquisite vintage champagne, offering notes of pear, smoke, toasted nuts, freshly baked bread and stone fruit. It has a medium to full body, with a deep and concentrated taste, characterized by a tight structure and an elegant mousse. Compared to the 2008 vintage, the 2012 is slightly drier and is expected to have a longer shelf life.

This vintage is both dense and powerful, with a combination of intensity and finesse reminiscent of 2003, but with greater elegance. Challenges such as mildew, rain and frost resulted in lower yields, resulting in a wine with great phenolic intensity. It is recommended to age the bottle for a few years before opening.

Dom Pérignon exclusively produces vintage champagne, meaning that the champagne is made from grapes from a single harvest year. The champagne house Moët & Chandon owns Dom Pérignon, which is their top cuvée. The first production took place in 1921 and was launched in 1936.

The name Dom Pérignon comes from the monk Dom Pierre Pérignon, who lived in the 18th century in the Champagne region. Although he did not invent champagne, he improved wine production in the area. The modern method of making champagne was developed in the early 19th century.

Each vintage of Dom Pérignon is unique and created from a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The champagne has a great potential for maturation, and the stages of maturation are described as P1, P2 and P3. P1 is achieved at the first release, typically 8-10 years after harvest. P2 comes after further aging, while P3 represents the ultimate peak, often after 30-50 years.

Dom Pérignon always delivers an exceptional champagne experience that never disappoints.

Here is a detailed description of the different types of champagne, sorted by dryness.

Types of sparkling wine

1. Brut Nature (also called Ultra Brut or Zéro Dosage)

Sugar content: Below 3 g/l (no added sugar)

Taste profile: Extremely dry, razor-sharp acidity and mineral character. Very clean and natural taste, where the terroir of the champagne and the original flavor nuances of the grapes stand out clearly.

When to drink it? Best with oysters, shellfish, sushi or as an aperitif for those who like an ultra-dry taste experience.

2. Extra Brut

Sugar content: 0-6 g/l

Taste profile: Very dry, but with a slightly more rounded character than Brut Nature. The taste is still fresh and mineral, with high acidity and finesse.

When to drink it? Perfect with lighter dishes like ceviche, carpaccio or salads with citrus and seafood.

3. Brute

Sugar content: Up to 12 g/l

Taste profile: Dry, but with a bit more balance and roundness. Brut is the most popular type of champagne, as it combines freshness with a light fruity sweetness. The taste often has notes of green apples, citrus fruits, white flowers and a slightly toasted character from the fermentation.

When to drink it? Ideal as an aperitif or with versatile dishes such as poultry, fish dishes, soft cheeses and even lightly spiced food.

4. Extra Dry

Sugar content: 12-17 g/l

Flavor Profile: Despite the name, this type is not dry, but rather semi-dry. It has a slight sweetness that gives it a softer and more fruity profile, but still retains a fresh acidity.

When to drink it? Goes well with foie gras, Asian food with a bit of sweetness (like Thai or Vietnamese dishes) or mild cheeses.

6. Demi-Sec

Sugar content: 32-50 g/l

Taste profile: Distinctly sweet with a silky texture. The taste has notes of tropical fruits, candied citrus, honey and brioche. However, the acidity keeps it fresh and not overwhelmingly heavy.

When to drink it? Ideal with sweet desserts like crème brûlée, fruit tarts or nut-based cakes. Can also be an exciting contrast to strong cheeses like Roquefort.

7. Sweet

Sugar content: Over 50 g/l

Taste profile: Very sweet, almost like a dessert wine. Has intense notes of honey, caramel, dried fruits and exotic spices.

When to drink it? Perfect as a dessert on its own or with the sweetest desserts like chocolate fondant, panna cotta or vanilla ice cream with caramel.
