2008 Dom Perignon Rose - Move fast or miss out

[Alex_Valdes]

A couple of us from the board had the opportunity to preview this wine. It is not only wonderful, but the blend is quite different than previous bottlings, making this a fairly unique rose relative to the past DP roses. If you are on the fence, I would suggest getting some.

My wife loves DP and Cristal rose - this is more than enough motivation to be interested in having both of these from good vintages in the cellar and available to woo her . CHEERS

Jon - seems like our wives have similar tastes. Cristal has been killing it with the rose the past few vintages.

I checked my old emails and the last and only time we had dinner was back in 2016. That was a great night. Let me know the next time you in NYC and we will get the old crew together for a dinner.

I’m constantly amazed anyone wants to give money to LVMH.

Why?

I also don’t support Constellation Brands, E & J Gallo, Pernod Ricard, nor Treasury Wine Estates. It is a conglomerate focused on Veblen goods. Too many great independent producers that I’d rather support.

Not that many of which produce champagne as good as Dom 08, 12 though. But I appreciate that you spend with your sense of justice. I have no qualms with that. Though you should not be constantly amazed that others spend on things that provide them personal satisfaction as well, perhaps just for a different reason than what you purchase provides you satisfaction.

Agreed - this will need to happen! CHEERS

I wrote down a couple quick thoughts when I drank it (I had a lot by that point so I was fatigued): I found it enjoyable early relative to other post 2000 DP rose I’ve had. It wasn’t as heavy as other DP rose either on account of far less still wine used in production relative to other recent releases. The leanness and fine mousse showed good freshness and verve.

Interestingly, lvmh selling it in london for £295 all in whereas merchants’ offers are well above that! Not sure what’s going on or how long that will last.

Found a place where this can be found for $400 on the nose. Kinda hard to pull the trigger at that price.
