Dom Pérignon

Find your vintage of Dom Pérignon for sale in London at Arden Fine Wines.

A precursor to Dom Pérignon appeared in 1935 as a one-off gift of no particular style or, indeed, name.

The producers presented it in the same replica 18th-century bottle we know today.

It also bore its equally recognisable shield-shaped label with vine shoots and grape bunches lining the sides.

The vintage was 1926, but they gave it no name as such.

They just called it “Champagne specially shipped for Simon Brothers & Co’s Centenary 1835–1935.”

Simon Brothers represented Moët & Chandon in London.

They sent a hamper containing two bottles of this special Champagne to 150 of its best customers.

When Moët’s American customers heard about this, they wanted some, too.

Moët duly obliged the following year, when they shipped 200 cases of the great 1921 vintage to New York.

These bottles, however, carried the Dom Pérignon brand, thus they officially launched Dom Pérignon in the USA in 1936.
