Dom Pérignon – P2 Plénitude 2 2004 – Champagne France

Dom Pérignon P2 (Plénitude 2) 2004 is the second life of one of Champagne's most iconic wines. After roughly 15 years on the lees, the 2004 vintage is disgorged to reveal deeper energy, complexity, and a radiant maturity that the standard release only hints at. A collector's Champagne of extraordinary precision.

Plénitude 2 is Dom Pérignon's concept of a second window of expression: the same vintage held on the lees far longer than the original release, disgorged when the house judges the wine has reached a new peak of energy. The 2004 is drinking beautifully on release, forward and giving, with the additional lees time elevating the minerality and adding a layer of toasty, mature complexity. Superb now, with the structure to hold for another decade or more.
