Highlights
What are the six elements that define luxury wine?
Which luxury wines are on Robert’s bucket list?
What’s it like to have a wine tasting with the winemaker for Dom Pérignon?
How is Dom Pérignon Plénitude even more luxurious than standard vintages?
Which luxury wine would Peter give a score of 100 points?
How does aging on the lees impact a wine’s taste and texture?
What makes Dom Pérignon a distinctive luxury brand?
Who was Dom Pérignon?
What are the four categories of luxury wine buyers?
What’s Robert’s approach to buying and collecting luxury wine?
What does Peter love about the 2013 Oddero Barolo?
Why should you add RAEN wines to your must-try list?
How can you pair 2013 Oddero Barolo and RAEN Pinot Noir with food?
What are Peter and Robert’s favourite wine gadgets?
Key Takeaways
I found their discussion of the elements that make a wine a luxury brand fascinating, especially the psychological motives beyond simply drinking a fine wine.
It’s quite a feat for Dom Pérignon to produce 5 million bottles almost every year and still have consumers believe in its rarity and scarcity.
Brand stories are central no matter what you’re selling. People relate to people, not things. We remember the story of Dom Perignon even if we get some aspects of it confused like he tried to get the bubbles out of his wine, not in, though he was a master blender.
I’ve since purchased a box of Repour closures and I think they are making a difference. I also bought the Durand Corkscrew, though I have yet to use it - hoping for a dried-out cork soon.
