Dom Pérignon


Yeah, that is right, we are poppin' Dom to celebrate our anniversary!  
This is the first time we have ever tasted Dom Pérignon, but it will not be the last.  In fact, we think it will be a yearly thing.  Actually the more we drink about it the more it seems like it should be a daily thing. 


Dom Pérignon was a French monk and a wine pioneer in the later 1600s.  His work with wine contributed to the production of champagne.  It wasn't until 1921 that the first vintage of Dom Pérignon champagne was sold.  (Vintage just means that all of the grapes were grown the same year, and that the year was a good year for grapes.)
2006 was a spectacular vintage.  
And 2018 was an even better one.

  1. History lesson o' fun. That is so cool. Was the Dom a gift or did you splurge? Love, love, love Miss A's tutu!

    Happy Anniversary you two!
