Dom Perignon, Andy Warhol

Amazing DP Rosé this bottle was outstanding drank over 2 hours. Dark salmon color almost like that of an Aperol Spritz. Tiny refined bubbles. Nose of blood orange, strawberries, red berries, hints of brioche, delicate and lovely on the palate with a beautiful finish. Doesn't pack a lot of lift and power, but a lot of pleasure and to me that's the whole point of drinking mature DP.

- Yellow gold color.

*** see previous notes Birthday bubble. My last of a six pack. Peach colored. Loads of mouse and aggressive bubbles. Nutty, brioche. Buttery saline notes. Unctuous and silky mouthfeel. Tastes like the nose. This is bloody delicious. Wow! Loads of life left. Fresh acidity. Creamy. Medium plus finish. Still percise and linear. Bone dry. This is the shizzle. Prime rib dinner tonight. Watching Animals season 3 Britt did NOT like it! Lolz.

We consumed 3 different vintages of DP over the holidays - 1999, 2002 Warhol, and 2004. This was the best with full on tertiary flavors. 2004 was the least good but still good. It was drier and crisper but lacking in development. 2002 was smack in the middle. Fun to be able to compare.

2002 vintage

Tasty and intense version of this wine. This is darker and more savory than the more elegant renditions of this wine, but I quite liked the intensity and presence. Strongly red-fruited.

2002 vintage

Excellent. Blood orange, intense and long.

2002 vintage

M&PD Tasting: Bisato (adbridged) : Explosive. Strawberry and mineral. Very deep. Just lovely.

2002 vintage

B3. A bit subdued from other Dom roses, especially bubbles. Still a lovely flavor profile. Mini-MPD at Bisato.

2002 vintage

A delicious way to start the day! From magnum

2002 vintage

Birthday dinner at Fragment : Clearly darker hue compared to the Cristal. As usual with Dom roses, rather tannic and unfriendly to me. The focus on power over finesse did it no favours alongside the Cristal tonight.

2002 vintage

Could the 2002 Dom Pérignon be in an awkward state? Today there is a lot of ginger and bitter minerals but nothing that could be described as fruit. Firm acids, vigorous spray, pretty dark pink Warhol label. Lacks the brightness of youth and the bass notes of advanced age. Hold tight.

2002 vintage

Still has aromatic appeal!!!!

2002 vintage

It is a delicious champagne but rather close and lacks the complexity and depth. Probably an off bottle or sleeping phase. Slightly disappointed after high expectation. I should try another bottle and reassess.

2002 vintage

Deep salmon color, with intense bubbles that quickly dissipated. The intensity persisted on the palate, with concentrated layers of floral and exotic fruit notes, saline and some spice. Just a touch oxidative. A really good showing.

2002 vintage

From Magnum. Pours a beautiful salmon color, with flavors of blood orange, orange rind, grapefruit, white cherry, chalk, red pear, and more orange. A smooth operator and deceptively seductive, with just enough silky perlage to keep the flavors lifted and alive throughout consumption. In a perfect spot. Those holding .750s may want to consider opening these in the nearer term.

2002 vintage

Not sure whether the bottle was a little off or whether this DP is in a strange phase. Salmon color with lots of vivacious bubbles and fizz, nose of light sweet cherries, lots of chalk and rocks, very mineral and fresh with great acidity and lift. However this needs time to breathe in bottle as it took more than an hour to get some pomegranate and fat notes towards an embellished finish which saved the wine from being a disappointment …

2002 vintage

this is a truly magnificent champagne that is at its apex and will be for a long time. drink or save depending on how much you own. buy more

2002 vintage

Mini Rousseau Check-In : Magnum. Fresh, sweet, quite sweet. 92-93

2002 vintage

See previous note except color was most evolved to an amber orange. Delicious champagne.

2002 vintage

Lovely Rosé drinking well after an hour of aeration in bottle. Pinkish salmon color, very fine and refined buddies. Mineral on the nose with hints of strawberries, brioche and wild berries. All this reflected on the palate, buttery and fat, well textured and structured, finishes long and perfumed. La grande classe!

2002 vintage

Excellent as usual

2002 vintage

Popped and poured. Outstanding. There is so much substance to this wine. Uber concentrated, taut champagne with lovely core of cherry fruit, minerals, spice and a little biscuit. This is still very youthful and probably has more charms to reveal with further aging.

2002 vintage

Very fresh lightly red fruited. Out of mag so barely any age noticeable.

2002 vintage

Beautiful mid rose color. Excellent cherry and strawberry flavors and active mousse. Unfortunately there is a very distracting metallic element through there mid palate and finish. From a bottle purchased on release. I hope other examples are better since the underlying material is so good.

2002 vintage

PnP. Fully developed tertiary notes with a fresh backbone of acidity. In a great drinking window for me.

2002 vintage

A lovely bottle. Deep, salmon red. Ripe, black cherry fruit mixes with light toast and roasted nuts. Cinnamon. Round and full - there is real breadth here. The red fruit notes continue onto the palate. Many tiny bubbles. Crisp. Long winey aftertaste. Has a still wine mouthfeel. Distinctive. (95)

2002 vintage

Very nice. Some tertiary notes.

2002 vintage

Opened by Mark. 3rd time I have had it (the other times were in 2011 and 2018). Medium yellow color. Fruity nose. Notes of sweet cherries, brioche and chalk. Wonderful depth and mouthfeel. The best showing yet. This is really starting to shine. 97 points.

2002 vintage

Right after opening, the two halves of the wine aren’t quite integrated — there’s a bright and fruity Pinot noir full of cherries, like a Sonoma pinot, and there’s a frothy toasty creamy champagne. Both good though neither amazing -- in no way is in "Burgundian" or anything majestic. Tannins just barely noticeable on the teeth. Beautiful red-copper color. After 30 minutes they come together into a great cherries and marzipan pastry. Which is pretty cool and approaching greatness. I …

2002 vintage

Had a high dosage of acid and mineral. Strong taste of green wild unripe strawberries. In my opinion it was to young and unripe and should be stored for at least 8 more years. The 2003 DP was much more better!

2002 vintage

JUST PERFECT NOW! DRINK DRINK DRINK

2002 vintage

Ringing in the New Year. Soft salmon color, good weight on the palate, strawberry, melon, simply delicious with caviar!

2002 vintage

New Year's Eve Warmup (State Street Manor - Chicago IL) : Popped-and-poured, this seemed moderately mature to start, but seemed to then freshen up. Rich and powerful with a broad array of concentration berry character throughout.

2002 vintage

To celebrate our youngest daughters 21st bday...the last red label...the crazy sharp acidity has finally been tamed! My experience with 02 DP has always been with high toned, pop rocks acidity rave party...last noted 8yrs ago...and now...it's finally calmed down, and is lovely! Wonderfully aged and sultry...classic DP caramel vanilla creme, white flower florals, sauteed apples...ginger and fresh bread dough mousse... pillow soft...salty crushed rock minerality...age has brought on some nice tertiary white mushroom, dried honey, and truffle...still a bright …

2002 vintage

Just at the leading edge of maturity, the ‘02 Dom Pérignon is bold, lively, lemony and gingery. It commands your tongue to curl up and pay attention. For the first few seconds there was a bright strawberry/cherry aroma which of course made me think it was Rosé.

2002 vintage

Definitely at peak, where it will remain for a few more years. Bead just starting to fade, but hazelnut notes have yet to take over. Still light golden color. Creamy green apple, lemon zest, touch of yeast, very rich and smooth with a long finish.

2002 vintage

Always love the 02 Dom, will go down as one of the best with more time

2002 vintage

A fabulous Dom. It is at prime drinking now. Drink the 08 now fir it’s vibrancy and freshness . The 02 for the full package.

2002 vintage

NOT Andy Warhol type

2002 vintage

Classic Dom. Green apples, citrus, just starting the develop that dash of hazelnut at mid palate. Modest yeast. 25 second finish.

2002 vintage

Pale straw gold. Aroma of honey, lemon zest, grape fruit, eucalyptus and mint. Palate entry of strong effervescence and lemon zest, followed by mid-palate of refreshing honey & grapefruit with mint. Long finish of rich citrusy fruits and mango towards the end of bottle after a couple of hours. Great champagne with nice waxy mouthfeel, honey, mint, mango and other tropical fruits. Still great life ahead of the '02.

2002 vintage

It’s finally turned the corner and starting to exhibit some secondary characteristics of toast and yellow fruit. Active foam but not aggressive. The lemony acidity has begun to integrate. A fine Dom Pérignon in the making.

2002 vintage

Excellent overall. Rich expression.

2002 vintage

Purple label Dull yellow, apple juice in color. Small , slow consistent, bubbles Nutty brioche on the nose. Rather faint. Lots of mousse. Lemon zest, more brioche and nuts. Medium finish. A lovely bottle for sure, but it seems to have waned a little bit from the last bottle I pulled 30 months ago. Still superb, and very enjoyable. Britt's 49th (Hy's on the way)

2002 vintage

PnP what a lovely lemon, honey, brioche, apple with the right amount of acidity makes this a very gulpable wine. Bubbles are perfect right now with 18 years after vintage. Has a minor bitter note at the very end. Two negatives, could be a bit more complex and could have a longer finish. Even with the two negatives (meaning not negative just not as good as could be) it is very enjoyable. Not sure it will get better due to …

2002 vintage

Maybe I just don’t know my vintage champagne, but nothing amazing.

2002 vintage

Good, but next to the P2 this came across as basic Champagne with nothing distinctive or notable sadly. I’m hoping just a slightly off bottle, but no obviously flaws.

2002 vintage

DP, DPR, DPO, DPP2 (Ft. Lauderdale, Florida) : Seems somehow even younger than the ‘04. Very shy and citric but not too acidic. Hasn’t budged since release. Nice though, and poised for the distant future.

2002 vintage

(SYP) Yellow label. yeasty, spicy, a whiff of honey and sour dough. It is so dry and has little fruit with a slightly bitter and tart finish.

2002 vintage

Crisp and clean, hints of tree fruit and melon.

2002 vintage

Are you sure?
