WINE MAKING PROCESS
Dom Pérignon Vintage 2015 is produced through a meticulous process that begins with careful selection of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes from select vineyards in Champagne. A portion of the Pinot Noir is vinified separately, akin to red wine production, before blending. The wine undergoes primary fermentation, followed by an extended aging period of 8 years in the cellar on its lees. This extended maturation is a cornerstone of the winemaking philosophy, contributing significantly to the wine's complexity and texture. The final dosage is kept low (Brut), allowing the wine's inherent character to shine through.
