      All Dom Pérignon is aged for at least eight years before release. But each year, a tiny amount of wine is held back for even longer ageing. This additional time spent in the cellars yields a complex, deep and concentrated champagne called Plénitude 2, the second life of Dom Pérignon. This second release of the 2004 vintage is similar in character and structure to the first, which was released in 2013, but is magnified in almost every respect. It's wider, deeper, longer and more intense. Arriving after a year marked by dramatic frosts and a historic heatwave, 2004 stood out as a year of renaissance and calm in the vineyards. Even though August was a bit cool, the few weeks of dry heat that followed really shaped the vintage. The vines thrived, expressing themselves to the full with a generous harvest of excellent, ripe grapes.

      Dom Pérignon P2 Vintage 2004 Plénitude 2
      Dom Pérignon

      In 1668, Dom Pierre Pérignon was appointed procurator at the Abbey of Hautvillers, and for the next 47 years he pursued a single, uncompromising ambition: to make the best wine in the world. Three centuries on, Maison Dom Pérignon continues that pursuit, guided not by trend or technique but by a constant search for harmony.

      Every Dom Pérignon release answers to the same constraint: the vintage itself. The House exists to bear witness to a single year's harvest, whatever that year brings, even when the honest answer is not to declare a vintage at all. Every wine is an assemblage, built on timeless principles that take precedence over any winemaking fashion. And every wine spends its formative years in the dark, ageing slowly on lees, where precision, intensity, minerality and complexity are allowed to develop on their own timeline.

      Dom Pierre Pérignon's own legacy is often reduced to myth, credited with inventing Champagne outright or, more strangely, remembered as a blind monk. Neither is true. What is true is the scale of his innovation: a gentler press that could draw clear, still white wine from black grapes; an early understanding of Champagne's marginal climate and the value of blending across vineyards; stronger English glass bottles built to survive pressure; and the reintroduction of cork as a dependable seal. Between them, these advances didn't just shape Champagne. They shaped the modern wine world.

      Tasting notes

      NOSE
      Citrus, Minerality, Honey

      Fruit aromas remain discreet with this second release of the vintage, yet they are more clearly defined with citrusy notes of pink grapefruit and blood oranges gently giving way to figs. The additional time on lees elevates the minerality with a sublime maturity that is typical of Dom Pérignon. Cocoa, mocha, roasted nuts, brioche and honey follow.

      PALATE
      Balanced, Intriguing, Creamy

      Balanced and intriguing, showcasing a surprising tension between immediacy and weightlessness. The initial flavours are citrusy and bright, with hints of grapefruit and blood orange. However, these notes evolve to reveal a richness of cocoa, mocha, and roasted nuts. The wine's texture is silky and creamy, highlighting the influence of the lees aging.

      FINISH
      Persistent, Liquorice, Complex

      Long and persistent, with a lingering touch of liquorice and sapidity. The interplay between citrus and toasty notes creates a delightful and complex finish.
