One of the smallest and strangest Dom Pérignon vintages ever released. 2017 was a stress-year in Champagne — drought, then rot pressure that decimated the Pinot Noir crop — and Dom Pérignon ended up bottling barely a fraction of normal volume. The blend skews unusually Chardonnay-forward (around 60%, the most Chardonnay-dominant Dom since 1970), giving a wine of seductive tension: the ripe, exotic side of the warm summer pulling against a wiry, mineral, almost saline spine. Chef de Caves Vincent Chaperon — who succeeded Richard Geoffroy and inherited this harvest — has called it a 'wild, exotic' Dom Pérignon. Released after seven-plus years on the lees, as the house has always done. Not a classical vintage; a singular one.

"The 2017 Dom Pérignon is just as stunning as it was last year, if not more so. What a wine! Lemon confit, marzipan, white flowers and chalk soar out of the glass. The 2017 is like a slightly more refined version of the 2002, another year in which the Chardonnays were quite opulent. In 2017, Chardonnay accounts for 61% of the blend, very high for Dom Pérignon. Over the last year, the 2017 has gained mid-palate creaminess and has just come together beautifully. Sadly, production is tiny, so much so that the 2017 is expected to be in the market for just a few months before the maison transitions to the 2018." —Antonio Galloni

"Dom Pérignon is the deeper and more structurally endowed wine, unfurling from the glass with a complex bouquet of orange peel, dried apricot and burnt buttered toast, mingling with nuances of dried flowers, toasted hazelnut and cacao bean, all strongly singed with the house’s signature smoky reduction. On the palate, it is full-bodied and concentrated, with a rich core of fruit. Its darker, open-knit profile is animated by a pillowy mousse, vibrant acidity and attractively bitter, structuring phenolics that assert themselves on a long, resonant finish. This is a superb achievement for a vintage that required uncompromising selection, as acetic rot began to intrude upon the Pinot Noir grapes despite otherwise favorable conditions until mid-August. The fact that it represents the smallest Dom Pérignon release by volume should not mislead readers into complacency; indeed, I would much sooner own several bottles of the 2017 than divide my allocation with the 2018. A blend of 61% Chardonnay and 39% Pinot Noir, it was disgorged in March 2024 with a dosage of five grams per liter and will offer considerable complexity and generosity out of the gates."

"A vivid Champagne, offering a finely detailed mousse, with a toasty overtone to the flavors of crushed white raspberry and white cherry fruit, grapefruit pith, toast point and oyster shell, all defined by chiseled, lemony acidity. A fine example from a challenging vintage. Drink now through 2037."

More about Dom Perignon

The prestige cuvée of Moët & Chandon, Dom Pérignon represents champagne as aspirational object and serious wine. Each vintage is crafted separately by a dedicated team, meaning every release asks you to trust their vintage-specific choices rather than expect consistency. Expensive, yes, but these bottles carry the weight of history and unbending quality standards.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

The whole spectrum: oysters and caviar on its own, then sushi and sashimi, lobster with brown butter, roast capon, hard mountain cheeses, or simply a quiet glass before dinner. Built for a long evening.

Tasting Profile

Tension is the word. Brioche, white peach, lemon zest and toasted almond meet a fine, persistent mousse and a saline, chalky finish. Ripe and wiry at once — the warm vintage held together by Chardonnay-led nerve.

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
