Dom Pérignon Brut Vintage 2017 (6 Bottles)

Product Description:

6 x Bottles Dom Pérignon Brut Vintage 2017

Dom Pérignon Brut Vintage 2017 is a prestige vintage Champagne from France’s Champagne region, crafted as a single-year expression of the maison’s vintage-only philosophy. The wine reflects a growing season defined by tension and contrast, a theme echoed in the producer’s own description of the vintage’s balance between bitterness and acidity, sweetness and tension, opulence and edge. It is led by Chardonnay, with the blend reported at 61% Chardonnay and 39% Pinot Noir, an unusually high Chardonnay proportion for Dom Pérignon. This gives the 2017 release a luminous, citrus-driven profile while still retaining the depth, texture and smoky complexity associated with the house style.

Aromatically, the wine draws together petrichor, jasmine, candied zest and a subtle vegetal-fruit complexity, creating an impression that is both fresh and enveloping. On the palate, it is textural and concentrated, shaped by fine mousse, vibrant acidity and a layered core of orchard fruit, citrus and toasted notes. The vintage is also notable for its very small production, with professional sources describing it as one of the smallest Dom Pérignon releases by volume. A low dosage of 4.5 g/L helps preserve precision and energy while allowing the wine’s richness and ripe fruit character to remain expressive. Its structure makes it compelling now, especially with refined seafood, shellfish, poultry, creamy sauces or aged cheeses, yet the balance suggests strong potential for further cellaring. Dom Pérignon Brut Vintage 2017 is a rare and distinctive expression of the house, offering a Champagne of contrast, depth and graceful tension.

Reviews & Accolades
“The 2017 Dom Pérignon is just as stunning as it was last year, if not more so. What a wine! Lemon confit, marzipan, white flowers and chalk soar out of the glass. The 2017 is like a slightly more refined version of the 2002, another year in which the Chardonnays were quite opulent. In 2017, Chardonnay accounts for 61% of the blend, very high for Dom Pérignon. Over the last year, the 2017 has gained mid-palate creaminess and has just come together beautifully. Sadly, production is tiny, so much so that the 2017 is expected to be in the market for just a few months before the maison transitions to the 2018.” — Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 98 Points

“Dense and layered with dried apples and pears as well as candied lemons, grilled lemons and lemon meringue. It's full-bodied, rich, tangy and flavorful. March 2026 release. Tiny production. Smallest ever for Dom Pérignon. A blend of 61% chardonnay and 39% pinot noir. Dosage 4.5 g/L. Drink now.” — James Suckling, 96 Points

“Of the two releases—the 2017 and the 2018—the 2017 Dom Pérignon is the deeper and more structurally endowed wine, unfurling from the glass with a complex bouquet of orange peel, dried apricot and burnt buttered toast, mingling with nuances of dried flowers, toasted hazelnut and cacao bean, all strongly singed with the house’s signature smoky reduction. On the palate, it is full-bodied and concentrated, with a rich core of fruit. Its darker, open-knit profile is animated by a pillowy mousse, vibrant acidity and attractively bitter, structuring phenolics that assert themselves on a long, resonant finish. ” — Kristaps Karklins, Wine Advocate, 95+ Points
