Wine Advocate, 94 Points 

“The 2000 Dom Pérignon Rosé P2 is a sapid, gastronomic wine, unfurling in the glass with attractive aromas of iodine, blood orange, dried white flowers and oyster shell. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and elegantly textural, with a rich and open-knit core of distinctly savory fruit, a fine but youthfully boisterous mousse and a long, saline finish. This almost Burgundian-styled rosé is fully mature and drinking very well today, and I would be inclined to open bottles over the coming decade.” 

Winemaker Notes: 

The flawless construction achieves a perfect classicism on the palate, dominated by a sensation of balance, consistency and integration. The wine has a surprisingly brilliant and fleshy fruitiness. Its initial solidity becomes more tactile and finally sappy, with a subtly bittersweet note.  The first floral notes immediately give way to black cherry and candied citrus peel, complemented by cocoa and a few smoky accents.  The wine’s surprising color is deep and strong, glinting with amber and copper. The amazing paradox is that this rosé wine is never really pink. It owes the depths of its almost Oriental highlights to its unique Hues. Life is not rosy, but thrilling.
