Description

The new dimension of a prodigy of longevity

The estate

Dom Pérignon champagne owes its name to the famous monk and cellar master of the Abbaye d'Hautvillers in 1668, Pierre Pérignon, known as Dom Pérignon. According to legend, Pierre Pérignon discovered what we now call the traditional method. As an anecdote, he taught this method in 1669 to the Benedictine Thierry Ruinart, which later enabled Ruinart to become, historically, the first Champagne house in 1729. Since January 1, 2019, Vincent Chaperon has succeeded Richard Geoffroy as Dom Pérignon’s Chef de Cave.

The vineyard

An iconic cuvée renowned for its excellence among the most discerning connoisseurs, each Dom Pérignon Vintage enhances the pure and authentic expression of a vintage in Champagne.

The wine

"Time is at the heart of the Dom Pérignon equation." Thanks to the former Chef de Cave of the House, Richard Geoffroy, who embodied the soul of Dom Pérignon for 28 years, the concept of "Plénitude" was born. Because the expression of a vintage is not fixed in time and evolves in stages, P2 or Second Plénitude offers a new vision of champagne after more than 15 years of aging. For each vintage, a limited number of bottles is set aside, destined for longer maturation: Plénitude 2.

After seventeen years of slow maturation in the house’s chalk cellars, Plénitude P2 2002 by Dom Pérignon enters a new era of its existence, standing as a witness to the passage of time. The result of an exceptional vintage, Plénitude P2 2002 by Dom Pérignon captures the fascinating personality of a year that will make history in Champagne.

Transformed by these years of cellaring and patience, this rare cuvée has reached the peak of its vitality. Plénitude P2 2002 by Dom Pérignon is ready to reveal its new dimension, showcasing the complexity, depth, and intensity that only time can bring. Power and richness are joined by the complexity, delicacy, freshness, and minerality of a great 2002 vintage champagne.
