Process & Profile
Dom Pérignon Limited Edition Damien Hirst Brut 2018 combines the prestige Champagne house’s newly released 2018 vintage with an exclusive bottle design by British contemporary artist Damien Hirst. Produced from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir harvested during the warm and generous 2018 growing season, the Champagne undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle followed by extended maturation on the lees. Vintage 2018 is also the first Dom Pérignon vintage created entirely under Cellar Master Vincent Chaperon.
Hirst drew inspiration from his 2001 Kaleidoscope series, reimagining Dom Pérignon’s symmetrical shield as a butterfly-like arrangement of colorful miniature emblems. The deep-blue design represents infinity and spirituality while connecting the artist’s approach to assemblage with Dom Pérignon’s blending of grapes, vineyards, and vintage character.

How to Enjoy
Serve Dom Pérignon Limited Edition Damien Hirst Brut 2018 chilled between 50°F and 54°F in a tulip-shaped Champagne or white-wine glass. The wider bowl allows its floral aromas, ripe fruit, brioche, citrus, and mineral character to develop more fully than a narrow flute.
Enjoy it as an aperitif or pair it with oysters, caviar, scallops, lobster, roasted poultry, morel mushrooms, or aged Comté. The bottle may also be cellared under proper conditions, allowing its citrus and orchard-fruit profile to develop deeper toasted, nutty, and savory characteristics.
