1992 Dom Pérignon - Champagne Brut - 1 Bottle (0.75L)

An opportunity to enrich your collection with a global icon: 1 bottle of Dom Pérignon Vintage 1992 Dom Pérignon is more than just a Champagne; it is the absolute benchmark of French luxury and winemaking. The 1992 vintage stands out as a "hidden gem": initially underrated, it has blossomed over time, revealing a complexity and freshness that only great vintages can maintain after more than thirty years. Professional Guide Scores (Updated 2026) Current ratings confirm that the 1992 is experiencing splendid maturity, with an evolutionary profile that captivates the most demanding critics: Robert Parker (Wine Advocate): 93/100 – A vintage that shines with harmony, with toasted and brioche notes blending with a still vibrant minerality. James Suckling: 95/100 – Praised for its persistent perlage and extraordinary creaminess on the palate, described as "aristocratic." Richard Juhlin (Champagne Expert): 94/100 – One of the world's leading experts describes the 1992 as a wine with an explosive bouquet of roasted coffee and candied citrus. Wine Spectator: 94/100 – A masterful example of the balance between the power of Pinot Noir and the elegance of Chardonnay. CellarTracker (Community): 93-95 – Enthusiasts report a wine at the height of its splendor, perfect for important celebrations. Key Characteristics Type: Champagne AOC Vintage. A secret and masterful blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes, sourced exclusively from Grand Cru vineyards and the Hautvillers Abbey. 1992 Vintage: A year characterized by a hot, dry summer, which allowed for optimal grape ripening, giving the wine a rich, exotic character and generous structure. Color: Bright gold with deep amber highlights. The perlage has become extremely fine, continuous, and caressing over time. Sensory Profile: The nose reveals hints of dried apricot, toasted hazelnut, acacia honey, and a subtle smoky note. On the palate, it is ample and silky, with a long finish that veers toward mineral and iodine notes. Label: In excellent condition (as shown in the photo) Level and Capsule: Excellent level (bottle neck). Original capsule intact, ensuring a hermetic seal and impeccable preservation. Important Note on Vintage Wines The 1992 Dom Pérignon is an investment piece sought after by collectors around the world. Although it is currently enjoying a sublime drinking phase, its rarity on the secondary market makes it an asset with a constantly growing historical and commercial value. It is recommended to serve it at a temperature of 10-12°C in large glasses to allow the complex bouquet to fully unfold. Seller: Private individual, professional sommelier since 2001. Shipping with specific transport packaging is guaranteed.
