Plenitude 2 is the second life of Dom Perignon patiently brought to a new elevation and set on a path to eternity. After close to 15 years of slow transformation in the cellars Dom Perignon expands its energy and rises to an apex of essential radiant vitality in its state of Plenitude. Elevated to new heights it unfurls across every dimensions wider deeper longer more intense – and gifted further with an extended longevity. The 2004 fruit remains discreet yet more clearly defined in this second life of the Vintage. Citrusy notes of pink grapefruit and blood oranges gently cede to figs. The additional time on the lees elevates the minerality of the vintage with the sublime maturity that is Dom Perignons signature. Cocoa mocha roasted nuts brioche and honey. The wine balances on the edge with immediacy and surprise evolving between tension and weightlessness. It has an extreme tactile precision deep and sculptural. The sensations come together in a persistent and elegant finish underlined by sappy licorice notes.wider deeper longer more intense
