If there is one bottle that instantly signals a true celebration, it is this one. Dom Pérignon is arguably the most famous Champagne in the world, only ever made in the absolute best years. The 2017 vintage is a particularly special release. It was a notoriously demanding, extreme year in the vineyards, meaning overall production was incredibly limited. The fact that the winemakers managed to produce a Champagne of this caliber is a testament to their absolute mastery, making these surviving bottles a rare and highly sought-after prize. Pour a glass, and you will see an incredibly fine, persistent stream of bubbles. On the nose, it is wonderfully complex - expect bright, zesty lemon and crisp green apple, followed immediately by comforting, rich aromas of warm toasted brioche and a faint, elegant hint of woodsmoke. In the mouth, it is electric. It feels incredibly precise and sharply defined, balancing that rich, toasty character with a mouth-watering, citrusy freshness that just goes on and on. While it is the ultimate drink to toast a special occasion on its own, it is also a phenomenal food wine. Do not be afraid to pair it with something comforting - it is mind-blowingly good with a generous portion of high-quality fish and chips, a luxurious weekend breakfast of smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, or a beautifully roasted chicken. It is the definitive taste of luxury, without any of the pretense.
