2006 Dom Perignon, Rose 1×1.5L

Robert Parker 95

The 2006 Dom Perignon Rose continues to show very well, unfurling in the glass with aromas of bitter orange, dried white flowers, red berries, toast and woodsmoke. On the palate, it’s full-bodied, broad and muscular, with all the phenolic structure and depth that one would expect from a rose that contains more than 20% still red wine, concluding with a sapid and chalky finish. As I wrote earlier this year, this is a vinous, gastronomic rose that numbers among the decided successes of the 2006 vintage. [William Kelley, 10/08/2019]

The 2006 Dom Perignon Rose is every bit as captivating as it was last year, maybe even more so. At times powerful, but in other moments finessed, the 2006 constantly changes in the glass, revealing a different shade of its personality with every taste. Perhaps most importantly, the 2006 seems to have gained a level of precision and pure sophistication it did not show last year, when it was quite a bit less put together. Back then, the 2006 was a wine of tremendous potential; today that potential is starting to be realized. Quite simply, the 2006 Dom Perignon Rose is a magical Champagne. Don t miss it.
