Dom Pérignon is a champagne house based in Épernay in the Champagne region of northeastern France. The house specializes exclusively in sparkling wine produced under the Champagne appellation, focusing on vintage-dated releases that represent specific harvests rather than non-vintage blends. Each vintage is released only when deemed ready for consumption, a practice that distinguishes the house's approach to champagne production.

The wines are crafted from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, the two principal grape varieties of Champagne. The house's production emphasizes precision in blending and extended aging on the lees, which develops complexity and contributes to the characteristic chalk mineral character typical of Champagne's terroir. All Dom Pérignon releases are produced in a Brut style, meaning they contain minimal residual sugar.

The current range includes vintage champagnes from 2006 through 2015, including a Rosé expression from 2009 and the P2 (Plenitude Two) cuvée from 2006—a wine that has undergone extended cellaring beyond its initial release. These vintage-specific releases reflect the house's philosophy of bottling only exceptional harvests and allowing extended maturation before release.

In 1668, Dom Pérignon is said to have discovered how to make sparkling wine; today his technique is used the world over, although Champagne continues to make some of the finest. France’s most northerly wine region, Champagne is now home to 15,000 growers and 290 ‘houses’. A blend of grape varieties is usually required: white Chardonnay to add fruit and elegance, and two reds – Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier – to provide body and backbone.
