2015 Dom Pérignon, Limited Edition Takashi Murakami, Brut - 750ML

97 Points – James Suckling

The 2015 Dom Pérignon takes on a distinctive presentation through its limited-edition collaboration with Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami. His colorful floral artwork brings a collectible dimension to the packaging, while the Champagne inside remains the acclaimed 2015 vintage. Shaped by a warm, dry growing season, the wine combines ripe fruit, layered texture and the mineral precision characteristic of Dom Pérignon.

Blend: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

Tasting Notes: Ripe peach, apricot and candied citrus are complemented by white flowers, toasted brioche, cocoa and a subtle smoky note. The palate is broad and finely textured, with layers of orchard fruit, citrus oil and roasted almond. Fresh acidity and a delicate, persistent mousse bring definition to the long, savory finish.

Structure: Medium to full-bodied, with a generous, creamy texture and substantial depth. The richness of the 2015 vintage is balanced by lively acidity and a firm mineral backbone, creating a Champagne that is expressive today while retaining the structure for further development.

Drink Window: Now–2040. Already enjoyable for its ripe fruit and developing complexity, the 2015 should continue to gain toasted, nutty and savory nuances with careful cellaring.

Serving: Serve around 48–52°F in a tulip-shaped Champagne or white Burgundy glass. Allow a few minutes in the glass for its layered aromatics and texture to emerge.

The Dom Pérignon x Takashi Murakami 2015 Limited Edition brings together a mature, critically acclaimed vintage and a visually distinctive artist collaboration. It is a thoughtful choice for collectors, art enthusiasts and special-occasion gifting, while the Champagne itself is particularly rewarding alongside lobster, turbot, roast poultry or dishes featuring mushrooms and truffles.
