Dom Perignon - Takashi Murakami Limited Edition Brut Vintage 2015 Champagne

Takashi Murakami born 1962 in Tokyo.

A Japanese contemporary artist known for his vibrant, anime-inspired paintings, sculptures, and commercial collaborations. He bridges the gap between high art and popular culture, blurring the lines between fine art, commercial design, and Japanese artistic traditions.

His work often features recurring motifs like smiling flowers, mushrooms, and Mr. Dob, exploring themes of consumerism, globalization, and the post-war Japanese experience. The new Andy Warhol of his time that he deeply admires. Precursor of “super-flat” (2000): 2-dimensional imagery inspired by Japanese art , also in manga and anime.

Nose: Notes of guava and spicy green grapefruit zest combine with stone fruit: white peach and nectarine. The wine opens up, with the whole complemented by woody vanilla and warm, lightly toasted brioche.

Palate: The fruit is majestic: ripe, fleshy and profound. Beyond the richness and a certain voluptuousness is a strong impression of consistency that prevails. The wine’s power is remarkably restrained. The various sensations – silky, salty, sappy, bitter and briny – converge and persist.
