I believe it is farewell to the 2008 Dom Perignon in F. It looks like it has been replaced with 2012 Dom.
Here is a quote from TheBuyer in an article entitled: Why the new Dom Pérignon 2012 is a classic vintage in every sense
"“On the palate it is quite clear there is one word – energy. The attack is rounder, welcoming but very quickly it is starting to vibrate and then explodes in your mouth with a surge of effervescence and tonicity. Focused by acidic and bitter notes, the finish brings a penetrating tautness marked by ginger, tobacco and toasted accents.”

Technical details:
Pinot Noir 51 % / Chardonnay 49%

Dom Pérignon 2012: is this new vintage worth buying?

I will be happy to taste on my flight from IAD to DXB in F in May!
