Dom Pérignon Rosé 2006

The bouquet of the Dom Perignon 2006 is mesmerizing, ripe, and complex. The opening notes are a blend of dark spices and cocoa which develop very quickly into fruit aromas. Fruit reigns supreme, with roasted fig and apricot and candied orange. The overall effect exudes smoky accents. The fullness of the palate is immediately striking. Its succulence and intensity set the tone through the sweetness and crisp punch of the flavours. The silky mouthfeel melts into a smooth, tight, and grainy structure with just a hint of vegetable flavours. The wine expresses an appealing brininess and saline character. This wine is matched perfectly with simple cuisine, modest, pure, authentic, a traditional cuisine from southern Europe, originating from Italy, Spain or France.
