One of the best products in the world is the first class product of the airline. The airline invests a lot of money in its first class soft product. The airline is known for serving Dom Perignon in first class.
The airline buys the best vintages up to a decade before they are ready to be eaten. It takes a serious effort to invest more in wine than any other airline.
Dom Perignon champagne is one of the best champagnes on any airline. The vintage that is most common at that time is usually served by us. Dom Perignon is currently being served on most flights.
You might be in for a treat if you are flying in the future. The champagne will be served on select routes over the next few weeks. This isn't always offered on all routes, but I see it listed for select flights to Asia and Europe.
You can see the wine offerings for each flight based on the date and route. Many routes show 2003 Dom Perignon P2.
The 1998 and 2000 vintage were served by Emirates. The 2003 P2 vintage will be served for the first time by the airline.
If you can find it, 2003 Dom Perignon P2 retails for over $400 per bottle, and that is if you can find it.
The term is short for "second plenitude." The idea is that the P2s have undergone much longer lees aging than vintage equivalents. Less P2 champagne is made and it takes longer to produce, which is why it costs more.
In place of the 2012 Dom Perignon, the 2003 Dom Perignon will be served in first class. Dom Perignon's P2 vintages are more expensive due to their rarity. If you have any upcoming flights in first class, you should check the wine list to see if you will be treated to some good stuff.
There is a Dom Perignon P2 on the menu.
