Dom Pérignon is one of Champagne's most recognised prestige cuvées, produced exclusively as a vintage wine. Rather than maintaining a non-vintage expression, each release is built around the character of a single harvest and the Maison's interpretation of that year.
The name traces back to Dom Pierre Pérignon, the Benedictine monk associated with the Abbey of Hautvillers from the 17th century. Today, Dom Pérignon centres its winemaking philosophy on vintage, assemblage and extended maturation, bringing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir together in pursuit of harmony, tension and complexity.
Our collection extends well beyond current releases, with Dom Pérignon Vintage, Rosé and Plénitude 2 (P2) represented across multiple vintages alongside magnums, gift-boxed bottles, Luminous Editions and sought-after artist collaborations.
Dom Pérignon Vintage
Dom Pérignon Vintage is the signature expression of the Maison and the starting point for understanding its approach to Champagne.
Each release reflects one particular harvest, with the balance between Chardonnay and Pinot Noir determined by the character of the vintage rather than a fixed formula. The wine undergoes an extended period of maturation before release, allowing the vintage and recognisable Dom Pérignon style to develop together.
Our collection spans both current and mature vintages, including 2017, 2015, 2013, 2012, 2010, 2009 and 2008, subject to availability.
This breadth makes it possible to compare different years rather than viewing Dom Pérignon as a single, unchanging expression.
Dom Pérignon Rosé
Dom Pérignon Rosé offers a different interpretation of the vintage, placing greater emphasis on Pinot Noir and the structure, depth and character it can bring to Champagne.
Produced in more limited quantities and released following extended maturation, Rosé occupies a particularly important position within the Dom Pérignon collection.
Our range has included Dom Pérignon Rosé 2005, 2006, 2008 and 2009, alongside limited-edition Rosé releases and collaborations.
For collectors, mature Dom Pérignon Rosé provides another way to explore how individual vintages evolve over time.
Dom Pérignon Plénitude 2 (P2)
Dom Pérignon Plénitude 2, commonly referred to as P2, represents a later stage in the evolution of a Dom Pérignon vintage.
Rather than simply describing an older bottle of Dom Pérignon, Plénitude refers to the Maison's philosophy that its Champagne develops through distinct periods of expression during extended maturation. P2 is released significantly later than the initial Vintage expression, after further development in the cellars.
Our collection has included Dom Pérignon P2 1998, 2003, 2004, 2006 and 2008, as well as the exceptionally rare Dom Pérignon Plénitude 2 Rosé 2000.
For collectors comparing Dom Pérignon vintages, P2 offers the opportunity to explore how extended maturation can transform the expression of a particular harvest.
Dom Pérignon Réserve de l'Abbaye
Among the rarest bottles in the collection is Dom Pérignon Réserve de l'Abbaye, represented by the 2002 vintage.
These exceptionally scarce releases sit apart from the more familiar Vintage and Plénitude expressions and are of particular interest to collectors seeking mature and difficult-to-source Dom Pérignon.
Availability is naturally limited and changes according to the individual bottles we are able to source.
Dom Pérignon Magnums & Larger Formats
Dom Pérignon is also represented across large-format bottles, including 1.5L magnums from selected vintages.
Our collection has included magnums of Dom Pérignon 2008, 2009, 2010, 2012 and 2013, alongside standard 750ml bottles and six-bottle formats of selected current vintages.
Magnums have particular appeal for celebrations, gifting and collecting, while also offering a different environment for the long-term evolution of Champagne.
Limited Editions & Artist Collaborations
Dom Pérignon has a long history of working across art, design, fashion and contemporary culture, resulting in some of the most recognisable limited-edition presentations in prestige Champagne.
Our collection has included collaborations and special editions associated with Andy Warhol, Lenny Kravitz, Lady Gaga, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Takashi Murakami.
Among them are the Andy Warhol Red Label Vintage 2002, Lenny Kravitz Edition 2008, Lady Gaga Rosé editions, Jean-Michel Basquiat Vintage 2015 Set of Three and releases featuring the work of Takashi Murakami.
These editions generally retain the underlying Dom Pérignon vintage while presenting it through a distinctive artist-designed bottle, label or gift presentation, giving them particular relevance for collectors.
Dom Pérignon Luminous Editions
Dom Pérignon Luminous Editions take a different approach to the conventional gift-boxed or artist edition, incorporating an illuminated label designed to make the bottle particularly distinctive when served.
Our collection has included Luminous releases across vintages such as 2008, 2009, 2012 and 2013, subject to availability.
The Champagne itself remains tied to its stated vintage. The distinction is the presentation, making Luminous bottles particularly popular for celebrations, events and gifting.
Gift-Boxed Dom Pérignon & Collector Formats
Selected Dom Pérignon vintages are available in both standard and gift-boxed presentations, including releases such as Vintage 2012, 2013 and 2015.
The wider collection also includes six-bottle formats, limited editions and occasional bottle-and-glass sets.
For gifting, the presentation format can be as important as the vintage itself, while collectors may place greater emphasis on the specific year, provenance, bottle size and rarity of the release.
Choosing a Dom Pérignon Vintage
There is no single "best" Dom Pérignon vintage. Each year reflects different growing conditions and a different interpretation by the Maison.
A current release provides an introduction to the contemporary Dom Pérignon style, while older vintages offer the opportunity to explore the development of Champagne with bottle age.
Rosé provides a more Pinot Noir-focused expression, while Plénitude 2 is the natural direction for those interested in significantly extended maturation.
For collectors, limited artist editions, magnums and mature vintages add further dimensions beyond the wine itself.
