Tasting Notes
The 2013 Dom Pérignon is pretty closed right now. Deep and layered, the 2013 shows quite a bit of density today. It's a typical wine for this vintage, a year marked by a warm summer but a late harvest because the growing season got off to a late start. The 2013 is finally starting to open a bit and show some textural breadth, but it remains on the reticent side. Score: 95 Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com Maturity: 2024-2044 14 May 2024
Pale straw yellow with a steady stream of small bubbles. Minerally-tinged white flowers, nectarine, apricot blossom and mint dominate on the nose and the mouth. Juicy, fresh and zingy. The long cool growing season has given us a lightly less rich mouthful of Dom, but one that is also piercing and precise, finishing long and focused with vibrant, harmonious acidity. Early season weather contributed to some Berry shatter that ultimately helped increase flesh and density in the finished wine. Lovely Dom Perignon that strikes me as falling somewhat in between the styles of the magnificent 2002 and the lighter but lovely 2004. Drinking window: 2025-2040.

Tasted blind. Amidst a blind line-up of relatively big name champagnes (La Grande Dame 2015, Moët Grande Vintage 2015, Krug Grand Cuvée), this stood out head and shoulders above the rest. Lusty, guttural, uncompromising. Big, powerfully toasty nose! Here be fireworks. Tiny bubbles, like 3D lace running a matrix through the wine. Clementine, straw, yuzu, kumquat, sharp apples – so much fruit! And then long, hungry, lean savoury lines. Grilled sourdough toast, roasted walnuts. So much here. Very, very long and very, very persistent. This is outstanding. The bubbles are like tiny, glittering jewels stitched into silk. A seriously exciting, serious wine. For special occasions I could almost too easily be persuaded to part with £250 for a bottle of this. (TC) Score: 18+ Jancis Robinson MW, JaneAnson.com 27 November 2023
Disgorged in October last year, the 2013 Dom Pérignon is a lovely wine, defined by the long, cool growing season. Offering up aromas of crisp stone fruit, tangerine oil, buttered toast, pear, almonds and clear honey, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and seamless, with bright acids and a pillowy, enveloping profile, concluding with a long, saline finish. Vincent Chaperon recalls that shatter at fruit set moderated yields and that a drying east wind in the weeks before harvest helped to maintain the good sanitation necessary to wait to pick at full maturity.

A driven and serious DP with aromas of chalk, biscuits, apricot stones and lemons. Some spice and dried flowers, too. So sleek and sophisticated. Elegant. Yet, it’s long and powerful, with a sharp minerality. Tight and precise. Reminds me of bottles from the 1980s, such as 1988. It really takes off. Disgorged October 2021. Drinkable on release in January 2023, but better in a couple of years. A DP for the cellar. Score: 98 James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com 27 July 2022
