【Dom Pérignon——世界頂級香檳品牌之一】
Dom Pérignon 不僅是一個頂級香檳品牌，更是卓越、奢華與歷史的象徵。它屬於全球最大的奢侈品集團 LVMH，但其名字與靈魂卻源自一位17世紀的本篤會修士。
Dom Pérignon 最獨特且聞名的一點在於：絕不生產無年份香檳（NV, Non-Vintage）。他們只會在葡萄品質極其卓越的特定年份才生產香檳。如果某一年份的葡萄無法達到他們嚴苛的標準，該年就不會有任何一瓶 Dom Pérignon 問世。每一瓶 Dom Pérignon 均以一年中精選的葡萄調配釀製，并都標註了單一年份，這意味著它充分反映了該年份的風土特性。同時，Dom Pérignon 以其強大的陳年潛力著稱，隨著時間推移，風味會變得更加複雜、圓潤且深邃。
2017年份可謂Dom Pérignon史上最特殊的年份之一，八月下旬的暴雨摧毀了原本前景看好的收成，即便最后收成尚可，2017年仍成為酒莊有史以來產量最小的年份，僅夠供應全球市場約三個月，堪稱「限量中的限量」。
2017年份香檳採用62%Chardonnay同39%Pinot Noir混釀。香氣層次豐富，初聞有誘人的烤麵包與煙熏味，其后逐漸綻放出菩提葉、茉莉等花香，夾雜著八角、小豆蔻的辛香與橙皮的清新，酒體極為潔淨。入口質感綿密柔潤，活潑的酸度緊緊撐起酒體結構，尾韻帶有酚類物質帶來的清爽勁道，兼具奔放與細膩，被酒評家譽為「迷你版2002年」，充分展現當年風土的獨特魅力。
TASTING NOTE BY WINE CRITICS
Of the two releases—the 2017 and the 2018—the 2017 Dom Pérignon is the deeper and more structurally endowed wine, unfurling from the glass with a complex bouquet of orange peel, dried apricot and burnt buttered toast, mingling with nuances of dried flowers, toasted hazelnut and cacao bean, all strongly singed with the house’s signature smoky reduction. On the palate, it is full-bodied and concentrated, with a rich core of fruit. Its darker, open-knit profile is animated by a pillowy mousse, vibrant acidity and attractively bitter, structuring phenolics that assert themselves on a long, resonant finish. This is a superb achievement for a vintage that required uncompromising selection, as acetic rot began to intrude upon the Pinot Noir grapes despite otherwise favorable conditions until mid-August. The fact that it represents the smallest Dom Pérignon release by volume should not mislead readers into complacency; indeed, I would much sooner own several bottles of the 2017 than divide my allocation with the 2018. A blend of 61% Chardonnay and 39% Pinot Noir, it was disgorged in March 2024 with a dosage of five grams per liter and will offer considerable complexity and generosity out of the gates.
