Product Notes: Presenting the Ambassadors of wine and champagne: Dom Perignon Champagne and Miriam Napa Valley Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon. The world's finest Champagne, Dom Perignon, is known for its hallmark pinpoint bubbles, citrus flavors and creamy, toasty finish. The 2002 Miriam Napa Valley Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon combines classic Rutherford scents of black cherry, peppercorn, and anise with a supple texture, and vanilla-oak finish.The extravagant gourmet spread includes Caviar, Carr's Traditional Water Crackers, Almond Cookies, Biscotti, and Fancy Crackers.
Color:
Pale yellow with golden highlights.
On the nose: The initial notes of fresh almond and grapefruit gradually lead into cashew nut and spices complemented by lightly toasted brioche.
On the palate:
Satiny texture unfurls on the palate, embracing and caressing it. Momentary weightlessness with a vibrating finish arouses the taste buds with controlled ardor. The persistence is remarkable, with the slightest undertone of tartness (citrus zest and buds.)
The 1999 Harvest
The year featured two unusual and contrasting weather related events: Record high temperatures in August followed by exceptional rainfall in the first half of September. Patience prevailed at harvest and was rewarded by a period of miraculously good weather resulting in healthy, especially well-ripened grapes.
