Description
The Dom Pérignon x Jean-Michel Basquiat Limited Edition is a collaboration between prestigious champagne house Dom Pérignon and legendary artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. This special edition combines the luxury of Dom Pérignon with the rebellious, expressive art style of Basquiat, who is known for his vibrant and provocative works.
Key Features of the Dom Pérignon Jean-Michel Basquiat Limited Edition:
Unique collaboration : This limited edition is not just a bottle of champagne, but a tribute to Basquiat, an artist who had a huge impact on the modern art world. Often associated with the street art movement, his work is characterized by strong symbols, bold colors and raw energy. This collaboration brings art and luxury together in a unique way.
Bottle Design : The bottle is adorned with elements from Basquiat's iconic artworks, reflecting the signature vibrancy and playfulness of his style. The design is bold and symbolic, inspired by his art that often explores themes of social injustice, culture, and individuality.
Exclusivity : Like other Dom Pérignon collaborations with artists, such as Andy Warhol or Lenny Kravitz, this edition is available in very limited quantities. This makes it a valuable item for art collectors and champagne lovers alike.
There are 3 colours blue, green and yellow. Given the limited nature, not all colours will always be available and we advise you to contact us if you want a colour or if the colour is still available.
Only the grapes from strong years – such as 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013 and now 2015 – are used to make this vintage champagne and thus the quality is guaranteed. Of course, coupled with a very precise development process, the right proportions and dedication of the cellar masters.
The 2015 Dom Pérignon, released in January 2023, displays a unique, ethereal profile with aromas of white pepper, iodine, ripe orchard fruits, toast, smoke, herbs and spices. Medium to full bodied, layered and structured, enveloping and round with a delicate phenolic mid-palate underscoring chalky dry extracts, finishing on a juicy, penetrating finish with gastronomic bitterness. This version of Dom Pérignon, while full of the usual charm and vinous generosity that typifies the label, is distinguished by its structurally delicate austerity and a distinctive phenolic profile, resulting in a remarkably linear and well-defined style that is clearly different from the more familiar expressions of Dom Pérignon. This is a blend of 51% Pinot Noir and 49% Chardonnay at a dosage of 4.5 grams per litre; it will age beautifully and can be enjoyed now or over the next 20 years.

Moët & Chandon is one of the largest and, last but not least, the most famous Champagne houses in the world. Moët & Chandon was founded in 1743. Dom Perignon and Brut Imperial are two of the champagne house's best-known labels. Moët & Chandon has built up a very good reputation for its consistent quality and recurring style. The holding company LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy) owns the champagne house.
Moët & Chandon Champagne is now one of the largest producers of sparkling wines in the world. The company has 34,041 hectares in Champagne, 48,000 hectares in Burgundy, and 120,000 hectares in Bordeaux and California. Only 13% of these are privately owned; the rest are vineyards owned by owners under contract. In Champagne, 39% of the vineyards are Pinot Noir, 32% Pinot Meunier and 29% Chardonnay. Of the Champagne's vineyards, 1150 hectares, the majority (of course) have grand cru or premier cru status. In short: the best quality. Grapes come from all areas of Champagne: the Vallée de la Marne, Montagne de Reims, Aube and Côtes de Blancs.
Moët & Chandon aims to offer the same taste and quality for the Impérial wines every year. That is why the blend of wines is different every year! In this way, influences of the vintage are eliminated. To get that taste the same every year, basic wines are used. The grapes of each plot at the disposal of the company are vinified separately. This is done in press houses near the vineyards, one of which has recently opened in Epernay, with a capacity of 356,000 hectolitres. In total, after the harvest, the company can dispose of 6000 bits of wine from one year; those 6000 'little' bits are combined with 100-150 base wines. Add to that the wines they have leftover from older years, which can also be used for blends, and you now understand what a gigantic task the nine winemakers of the company have. It usually takes about four to five months for the final blend to be tuned for an Imperial! The nine winemakers are also helped by measuring equipment and chemical analyses.
MEET is the best-selling and best-known champagne worldwide. Every one and a half seconds, a bottle of Moët & Chandon Impérial Brut is uncorked somewhere in the world. Not surprising, even completely deserved, when you taste the consistently excellent quality. The Impérial Brut is composed of about 150 different wines, extracted from chardonnay, pinot noir, and pinot meunier, and all parts of Champagne. It is champagne without a vintage because the assembly also contains an important part of vins de réserve - beautifully matured wines from older years. Imperial Brut refers to the pleasant
dry taste (Brut) and the long-standing preference of Emperor Napoleon for the champagne of Moët & Chandon (Impérial).
