Similar to 2005, 2006 had perfect weather at harvest, following an excellent growing season. The production team at Moet e' Chandon continue to produce some of the best Champagne in the world. This new bottling of Dom Perignon is no exception. This wine begins with aromas of brioche, porcini mushroom, gala apple and banana. This leads to flavors of red delicious apple, toasted macadamia nut, Meyer lemon rind, and Japanese pear. This is absolutely ethereal as the mousse is silky and incredibly textured. The earthy components to this blending beautifully complement the citrus fruit. An absolutely stunning Champagne that is a very small step ahead of the brilliant 2005.
