November 3, 2017 - Flasche nicht ganz fehlerfrei. Keine Wertung.
July 22, 2017 - Still fresh with a red berry richness. A cleaner but slightly less complex profile than some bottles I have had
November 6, 2016 - Very distinctive orange-salmon colour. Absolutely glorious floral and fruity nose with raspberry and dried rose dominating. The palate was initially weaker - merely dilute strawberry - and needed 15mins of air and some warming to show. I think this will improve over the next 5-10yrs (the palate just doesn't live up to the nose at the moment) and there is significant upside. Drink 2020-2035. 94-95+pts
October 18, 2014 - From magnum. Berries, melons, light earthiness all enveloped by warm yeast and funk. Very nice.
July 31, 2013 - Five Oeno's. The 90 Rose Oeno was our reception wine, and while young, it drank well. I've liked this wine every time I've had it, and its going to be great over time. The 69 Oeno showed very good, and time in the glass was well rewarded. Have had better bottles, but this was terrific. The 66 Oeno was the star in this setting, and most of the table liked it best. The 73 Oeno has been one of my favorites of late. This bottle showed excellent straight out of the bottle, but for me it lost a little in the glass over the hour plus we drank them. The 70 Oeno was good. For most of us it was our first crack at this wine, and was fun to drink straight off the boat. Looking forward to drinking a few of these over the next year and seeing how they show.
November 17, 2012 - Dom Pérignon Masterclass with Richard Geoffroy at Decanter Fine Wine Experience (Landmark Hotel, London): Appearance: pale orange colour, between copper and brass.
Nose: clearly developed with undergrowth and wet moss, possibly peat, some fudge notes, smoke, citrus and red apple. The developed notes remind me primarily of the “firne” note usually found in really old German Riesling and sometimes also Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir), but also a little of mature red Burgundy.
Palate: wild strawberries, citrus and in particular grapefruit, mineral, high acidity, spice, light tannic impression. Clearly elegant.
Overall impression: lovely developed nose, but much younger on the palate. 95 p.
Much more developed in the nose than the white 1990. At this point in time, I found it the best of the rosé DPs of the tasting.
From a magnum bottle. I didn't catch the disgorgement year, but the other magnum Œnothèques of the tasting were disgorged in 2006 or 2007.
November 17, 2012 - Dom Perignon Masterclass, with Richard Geoffroy (Decanter FWE, The Landmark hotel, London): From Magnum and one needs to adjust from the slower aging caused by the Magnum effect according to RG.
Caramel, pink colour and luminous like a proper DP. Fuller nose, full of complexity and richness and you cannot but keep going back and back. Stunning nose. On the palate it is very vibrant and dances on the palate. Mineral wine, and the length of this wine is like for ever. Still on the young side and with a great future. Solid 95 at this stage but judging by the 82 the followed the future will only bring higher marks for this wine.
November 10, 2012 - DOM PERIGNON tasting (Rotterdam, Netherlands): (42% pinot noir - 58 % chardonnay) Coppery pink color with yellow reflections. Nose of developed aromas of spices and tobacco. On the palate a touch of humus, hints of spices, leather, light tobacco, and other things besides. Sensational fullness on the finish. A great, mature Oenotheque rosé! ...... WOTN
December 6, 2011 - Rich flavored Champagne. Long on the finish. Grossly overpriced.
March 16, 2011 - An evening of Doms (Uncle John's): Medium yellow to pinkish color, disgorged in 2007. Nose is like the normal 90 Rose but with extra elements of hazelnut and oak, very youthful. The wine itself is very much like the normal 90 rose but the nose is much fresher and indeed more complex, this should live much longer than the normal version. Stylistically different from the normal 90 and cannot say which one is superior, its a matter of taste and also the price tag of this bottle is simply stratospheric.
