Note di degustazione
Still a hint of that green tint and this is as bright as the 04, though the colour seems a little deeper. A very fine mousse again. Much richer nose – toasted brioche with a hint of smoke and a creamy mushroom edge. And this follows in the mouth – a lovely, forward, broad and open mouth. A touch of toffee? Gorgeous – this is at the height of the back-flip, the jack-knife of the dive. This has fanned out: broad and open yet remains delicate and very finely-knit. If the 04 has a hint of Chablis about it then this is more Meursault. And goes on and on again. Very good.

The 1998 Dom Pérignon P2 is clearly heading into its next plateau of maturity, as evidenced by a host of coffee, roasted almond, butter, brioche, caramel, lemon confit and pastry notes. Even so, there is a good bit of freshness to play off a generally mature set of aromas and flavors. Readers who enjoy mature Champagne will find quite a bit to like in the 1998. Today, it is especially open-knit and giving. Two recent bottles have been terrific.
Richard Geoffroy calls this ‘athletic’ and is proud of having picked later than most. Released in 2014. Delicate but very concentrated too. Round and rich. Quite opulent. Broad and muscular; meaty. (JR)
The 1998 Dom Pérignon P2 is superb. Just starting to soften, the 1998 is beautifully layered in the glass, with a translucent, vertical sense of structure that is compelling and an attractive top note of reduction that adds freshness. Vibrant and yet wonderfully complex, the 1998 is a gorgeous wine for drinking now and over the next two decades or so. This is a very strong showing. With more and more time, the 1998 seems to have acquired an additional dimension of nuance. This is an especially majestic bottle of the 1998.
