Dom pérignon rosé vintage 2009

Gray, overcast skies dominated the viticultural year in 2009, a notable exception in a decade of brazenly generous sun.Spring and summer were marked by a relentless lack of both light and warmth. And then, September made the vintage thanks to a late and miraculous spell of beautiful weather. As the harvest began on September 15, conditions were at last perfect – bright sunshine and sustained north to north-easterly winds. Grape picking continued over an extended period to take full advantage of this unexpected gift.The maturity of the grapes surpassed all expectations, revealing an exceptional high-toned balance.
