Dom Pérignon Rosé 1988 is a prestige cuvée Champagne from a year characterised by a dry, sunny summer and a cool harvest, yielding wines of great acidity and focus. The blend includes a proportion of still Pinot Noir from the Grand Crus of Aÿ and Bouzy, which provides the wine`s deep copper hue and structural backbone. Aged for over a decade in the cellars of Épernay, this 1988 release has developed profound tertiary complexity. It reveals a bouquet of dried raspberries, orange peel, saffron and toasted nuts. The palate is firm and vinous, with a fine-beaded effervescence and a long, savoury finish that highlights the longevity of the vintage.
