Our Wine Mission is the perfect opportunity for me to travel and reach out to all the followers and lovers of Dom Pérignon. 2010 will be history in the making for Dom Pérignon with the launch of the new Dom Pérignon Rosé Œnothèque programme. My agenda will be quite busy this year with several releases (!), and the first part of the 2010 Wine Mission will revolve around the releases of the 2000 Dom Pérignon Rosé and 1990 Dom Pérignon Rosé Œnothèque.
My first stops will be in Japan, where Dom Pérignon Rosé has traditionally been particularly well received. I will outline my wine philosophy and the approach that is of utmost importance when making Dom Pérignon, introducing the Manifesto as a starting point for the exchange of views and ideas. The Manifesto can indeed be linked to all the decisions I make, it is truly the expression of my vision of winemaking.
I am very excited at the idea of meeting fellow Dom Pérignon enthusiasts during this Wine Mission.




Dear Richard
Congratulations on your new blog! Please let us know if your 2010 wine mission will bring you to Sydney, Australia? (If so I would be grateful for the opportunity to test drive the Dom Rose 2000)
Secondly I am currently writing a book on Champagne which includes anecdotes about Dom Perignon being the preferred champagne of James Bond – I am looking for images and tastings notes for the famous 1953, 1955 and 1959 vintages of Dom Perignon. Can you please help me source this information
Grand merci d’avance
Champagne Jayne
Hello Champagne Jayne,
Thanks for your comment !

So far, these are like chapters in a very exciting book, leaving the reader eagerly awaiting the next episode! Very well done indeed! I have been writing our family winery’s blog from Alentejo, Portugal for the past 2 years, and find nothing more interesting than to be able to listen to other winemaker’s stories.
And if you do come to the European Wine Bloggers Conference 2010 in Vienna in October, we will be there as always, so it would be great to meet! There are a lot of terrific people at these events!
Congratulations on pushing the envelope once again Richard!
I can’t wait to see you when you return to your “second home,” New York City. Talk soon my friend. – Bobby
