Champagne Thiénot x Penfolds 2012 Chardonnay Pinot Noir Cuvée is a limited release Champagne, made in celebration of Penfolds 175th anniversary. Partnered with Thiénot, a respected player in the world of Champagne, Penfolds instigated hands-on involvement throughout the tirage storage to create an extraordinary Vintage 2012 Champagne. A Champagne worthy of celebrating Penfolds past, present and future. Making an immediate statement, the nose is alluring, rich and opulent. Scents of crème brûlée and toffee-apple preside, coupled with subtle fresh tobacco leaf and unfurled honeysuckle. Even and assured all the way across palate, a fruited-sweet attaqueis followed by seductive acidity. Complete, pure and latent. Peak drinking now 2040.

Elegant, with colour changing naturally from a pretty raspberry hue to salmon-pink. A precise nose of extraordinary freshness and a wide range of red fruits: raspberry, redcurrant, strawberry, black cherry. A fresh and sharp attack for this supple and rounded wine. On the palate, it offers the sensation of plunging into a basket of freshly picked red berries. Pinot Noir from 10 different crus located mainly in the South and North areas of the Montagne de Reims including the famous Côte de Bouzy. Notably from the finest crus of Ambonnay, Bouzy, Louvois and Tours-sur-Marne. The grapes from carefully selected plots are sorted and destemmed before vatting. The maceration lasting from 48h to 72h depending on the harvest helps the extraction of the colour and the development of the full aromatic richness of the Pinot Noir, with 5 years minimum ageing.

Arguably the best, and certainly the most popular Champagne in the world, Dom's distinctive dark green shield inspires respect and reverence. The very essence of luxury. If there was ever a must taste Champagne, it's Dom Pérignon.

Dom Pérignon is the most famous Champagne in the world, and for good reason. The bouquet sparkles with delicate fresh violets in a setting of white peaches. The soft delicate flavours continue while the senses are tickled by the most delicate of fine bubbles. Though this is such a fine delicate wine, the complexity is astounding, along with its length. Stunning.
