DOM PÉRIGNON
(Featured image above)
Dom Pérignon is an iconic drink for special occasions. This holiday season, Lenny Kravitz designed a limited collection of bottles, candelabra box, and table-bar to interpret the unique experiences of tasting champagne. Dom Pérignon x Lenny Kravitz limited edition will be launched in exclusivity at Lane Crawford Hong Kong and will also be available at selected retailers. We also love the Dom Perignon Vintage 2002 Plenitude 2. After almost 15 years of transformation, the long-anticipated Vintage 2002 Plenitude 2 is the result of the interplay among nature, time and winemaking expertise. It even has extended longevity which makes it perfect for gift giving and for toasting, of course. It’s the perfect way to mark many memorable moments. Dom Pérignon x Lenny Kravitz is available at HKD $1,600.
