Eleven percent of Pinot Noir red wine lends the cuvée its refined, gently peach-tinged hue, slightly paler than usual. The nose captivates with its understated elegance, offering a delicate interplay of spicy, woody nuances and expressive, crunchy red-cherry fruit. With air, notes of ripe pineapple emerge, bringing a subtle sweetness and charm. On the palate, the wine surprises with its poise and restraint. Light in touch, yet intricately structured, framed by super-fine tannins. While one might expect power from this solar harvest year challenged by late season rains, Dom Pérignon 2010 reveals instead a remarkably elegant expression, radiating instant, articulate complexity.

Essi Avellan [October 2025]

The 2010 Dom Pérignon Rosé is elegant, gracious and lifted. Cranberry, mint, white pepper and pink grapefruit open first. The 2010 is a total charmer, that much is obvious. It is also far more interesting and engaging than the Blanc in this vintage. Ethereal and delicate, with lovely understated depth, the 2010 has a ton to offer. Its long, sustained finish is exceptionally beautiful and inviting. Drinking Window 2025 - 2035.

Antonio Galloni, Vinous [April 2025]

Born from rigorous selection in a botrytis-pressured year, the 2010 Dom Pérignon Rosé is composed of 44% Chardonnay—sourced predominantly from Chouilly, Cramant and Avize—and 56% Pinot Noir, with the latter largely drawn from Verzenay, Mareuil-sur-Aÿ and Hautvillers. Eleven percent of the Pinot Noir was vinified as red wine, lending the wine its color, aromatic lift and textural nuance. Disgorged in March 2024 with a dosage of five grams per liter, it unfurls from the glass with aromas of bitter orange, wild raspberry and fresh strawberry, mingled with nuances of rooibos, Timut pepper and charred, buttered toast. On the palate, the wine is medium- to full-bodied, muscular and vinous, built around a rich yet vibrant core of fruit, complemented by structuring phenolics that impart its bitter qualities. Ample and textural, this is a commendable effort in a challenging Champagne vintage. Drink Date: 2026 - 2038.

Kristaps Karklins, The Wine Advocate [December 2025]

To be released commercially in 2026. Blend of 44% Chardonnay and 56% Pinot Noir in total (including 11% red wine). (In the mid 1990s it was 15–18% then in the mid 2000s, as a result of the focus Richard Geoffroy was putting on Dom P rosé, it reached 28% but has been reduced since then.) They invested in a new winery in 2006–2008 with very small vats and burgundy-style pigeage for the reds. They started a programme to re-select red wines for Dom P and the wine now comes from 30 or so hectares in Hautvillers, Aÿ and Bouzy. They've been busy identifying the best plots, best clones and best raw material so this 2010 is the result of long research. Stunning. So rich and complex on the nose! With almonds, burgundy flavours and strong Pinot Noir character on the nose. Really exciting! No shortage of structure. It seems so rich that it kids you there is some sweetness but the dosage was less than 5 g/l. Food wine. Should be great with tonight's langoustines! Long and savoury on the end. If grand cru rosé burgundy existed, this is what it would taste like. (JR)
