Dom Perignon P2 2002 Champagne 750ml/Btl 3/case

Description

William Kelley: The 2002 Dom Perignon P2 is showing very wellindeed, wafting from the glass with aromas of crisp yellow orchardfruit, dried white flowers, orange oil, smoky peach, peat andpraline. On the palate, it's full-bodied, broad and textural, witha ripe and muscular core of fruit, ripe acids and fineconcentration, concluding with a long and elegantly toasty finish.As I wrote earlier this year, this is a ripe and powerful DomPerignon that finds its closest stylistic analogy in the 1990vintage, and it is considerably less evolved than the more tertiary2000 P2 today. While the P2 is a bit drier and more precise on thefinish than the original release, given the wine's slow evolution,the difference between the two is less pronounced than it has beenfor any vintage since 1996. To my palate, it really needs four orfive years in the cellar before it truly starts to blossom.
