A CELEBRATION OF THE CHEF DE CAVE LEGACY & THE UNVEILING OF DOM PÉRIGNON VINTAGE 2008
On January 1, 2019 Vincent Chaperon will become the new Dom Pérignon Chef de Cave, succeeding Richard Geoffroy, with whom he has been working closely for 13 years. This transmission is a compelling milestone in the history of Dom Pérignon, embodying a living heritage. The iconic Chefs de Cave are the custodians who guarantee the vision that has always made Dom Pérignon unique: a creative ambition, a continuously reinterpreted quest, the quest for harmony as a source of emotion. This vision is embodied in sum of all the vintages, both past and future.
A special day in Hong Kong on October 26, 2018 featured the profound vibrancy of this transition, underscoring the symbolic and human resonance of the event.
Celebrating this occasion they have most recently launched Vintage 2008 and both Chefs de Cave hosted an Ultimate Experience at the Qube, PMQ, Central on 26 October 2018 (Friday) and welcomed celebrities and socialites including Simon Yam, Amanda Strang, Jeremy and Nicola Young, Thierry and Ingrid Mandonnaud, Feiping Chang, Antonia Li, Reggie Li-Kwok, Sean Lee Davies, Edwin Chuang and more.
This unique experience took guests and celebrities alike on a journey to explore the new Vintage 2008, guided by Richard Geoffroy & Vincent Chaperon. After a tasting of this athletic vintage, guests were treated to delectable noble pairings created by two-Michelin-starred chef Richard Ekkebus of Amber, Landmark Mandarin Oriental. Throughout the evening, true to the luxury of the Maison of Dom Pérignon, guests experienced a night of opulence and allure.
