The Power of Creation meets the transverse universe of Iris van Herpen
Last night, on the eve of New York Fashion Week, in presence of the models Anja Rubik and Coco Rocha, Andrew VanWyngarden from the band MGMT,
Carmelo Anthony, Kelly Rutherford, the DJ Bob Sinclar and
many others, the Dom Pérignon champagne announced its promising new
collaboration with world-renowned designer Iris van Herpen: Dom Pérignon Metamorphosis
by Iris van Herpen. The occasion revealed the limited editions for end-of-year 2014: Cocoonase,
the über-premium, made-to-order piece of art designed by Iris van
Herpen, and an exclusive serie of gift boxes featuring a bottle of Dom
Pérignon Vintage
2004, whose label also inspired the creator.
This exclusive new collaboration combines Iris van Herpen’s
forward-thinking aesthetic with the Dom Pérignon champagne’s playful
expression, limitless innovation and taste for reinvention. She won the
prestigious ANDAM fashion award (2014 grand prize).
DOM PÉRIGNON METAMORPHOSIS by IRIS VAN HERPEN
Dom Pérignon Metamorphosis by Iris van Herpen marks the end
of Dom Pérignon Vintage 2004 as we know it in its first Plénitude and
celebrates its pending metamorphosis into P2, or Second Plénitude of the
Dom Pérignon Vintage. All that we know may
disappear for a time, but it will rise again – transformed and
reinvented.
The new limited edition centers upon metamorphosis: signifying the
closure of one period and the birth of another, and a powerful symbol of
evolution, transformation and renaissance. Throughout its history, the
Dom Pérignon champagne has been intricately
linked to the concept of metamorphosis. The spiritual legacy of Dom
Pierre Pérignon constantly reinvents itself throughout the ages,
selectively choosing when to emerge in the form of a new vintage.
A ÜBER CREATION: COCOONASE, THE PROMISE OF METAMORPHOSIS
In Cocoonase, Iris van Herpen was inspired by the importance
of time in crafting the Dom Pérignon vintages: the agility and speed
needed to pick the best grapes at their peak of perfection, versus the
wine’s many potent years of active maturation. Cocoonase highlights
this duality of time to underscore the singularity of Dom Pérignon wines.
“The name Cocoonase references the butterfly which
softens her cocoon shell before she goes into her next stage of
metamorphosis,” said Iris van Herpen. “This piece of art houses Dom
Pérignon Vintage 2004, symbolically nestled inside of the
cocoon structure, and its fine ribs and lines represent a one-way
passage out. Cocoonase acts as a shield that protects the Dom Pérignon bottle as it prepares for its metamorphosis.”
Iris van Herpen also designed a limited edition of bottles and gift boxes for Dom Pérignon Vintage 2004.
The Dom Pérignon Vintage 2004 gift box and label of the bottle are
inflected with green in all its vibrant exuberance, illustrating the
organic power that is generated within the wine in the process of its
transformation to P2. For the Dom Pérignon brand,
the green-dark color is an important code and chromatic expression.
This penetrating darkness is a reflection of the soul of the wine, and
its intensity, depth and complexity.
IN METAMORPHOSIS THERE IS NO END – ONLY CHANGE
Dom Pérignon P2 is the new, energetic facet of the Dom Pérignon
universe. An exponential leap into a higher definition of wine, the Dom
Pérignon vintage experiences a Second Plénitude, or window of
expression, after a period of extended and active elaboration.
In the darkness of the cellars, the wine achieves its Second
Plénitude after a minimum 16 years of elaboration for a Blanc – or 18
years for a Rosé. The wine is lifted, bursting forth with a penetrating
energy, speaking out clearly after a metamorphosis
in the absolute calm and silence of the cellars.
Vintage 2004 leaves its mark on the history of Dom Pérignon for its
ease and harmony. After no fewer than eight years of aging on the lees,
Dom Pérignon Vintage 2004 revealed its first radiant expression, with
the promise of additional Plénitudes to come.
From the very start, Vintage 2004 opens up in an astonishing way, with
great ease and symbiotic. Gradually, with rare elegance, it glides
between density and buoyancy in a seamless crescendo leading into the
chiseled complexity of a singular universe.
On the nose, aromas of almond and powdered cocoa develop gradually
into white fruit with hints of dried flowers. Classic toasted notes give
a rounded finish and denote a fully realized maturity.
On the palate, the wine instantly traces an astoundingly fine line
between density and weightlessness. Its precision is extreme, tactile,
dark and chiseled. The full taste lingers with the utmost elegance on a
sappy, spicy note.
