Lenny Kravitz is a long-time friend of Dom Pérignon. Passionate about its vintages and a kindred spirit of former Chef de Cave Richard Geoffroy, the singer has always felt a creative affinity with the champagne brand, which reinvents itself each vintage, to create the best champagne. Kravitz takes its shield label to the next level. Working hammered metal on to the surface, he creates a shimmering patina reflecting the 2008’s expressive warmth.
Rich fruit. Nose is quite forward, with that trade mark match-strike smokey character subtly coming through. Smokey bacon, pineapple and guava on the palate with underlying ripe lemons and bright red apples, all wrapped around a texture from long lees ageing. Finishes very fresh and light, dances on the palate with a hint of that saline and twist of bitterness which really help balance the delicacy and finish.
