Vintage Champagne · 2013
Dom Pérignon only exists in years worth remembering. 2013 was one of them — Champagne's last October harvest, and among the finest releases of the house's recent history.

Called "among the finest Dom Pérignon releases of recent times" by Decanter — released only because chef de cave Richard Geoffroy judged 2013's unusually long, cool growing season worthy of the name.

Questions
Why is Dom Pérignon only made in certain years?
It's a vintage-only house — no year is guaranteed a release. The chef de cave only declares a vintage when a harvest is judged exceptional enough to represent the house on its own.
What made 2013 unusual?
A cold, wet winter and spring delayed budding, followed by the sunniest summer on record in Champagne — resulting in the region's last October harvest, which gave the grapes unusually long hang time and depth.
How long will this bottle keep?
Critics put its drinking window through 2037–2038, though it's already approachable and delicious now.
