the 2015 Clos Fourtet has lifted menthol notes on the nose over a core of chocolate-covered cherries

Wine bottled young so that it retains the maximum of its fresh aromas

Can be best served with hearty appetizers

This wine offers much-needed sharpness and linearity

and honeyed nuances

2017 Dom Perignon Moet & Chandon Vorverkauf the 2015 Clos Fourtet hasGalloni 97 Punkte: The 2017 Dom Prignon is so impressive. A sort of mini 2002, the 2017 is a Champagne of textural richness and resonance above all else. Its creamy, voluptuous contours are so inviting. Production for the 2017 is tiny, about a three month supply, so this wine will come and go pretty quickly. That represents a fairly dramatic shift in philosophy at Dom Prignon. In the past, a wine like the 2017 would not have been commerically viable
