Dom Perignon

Luxury French sparkler

Dom Pérignon is a prestigious French champagne produced by Moët & Chandon, named after the 17th-century Benedictine monk credited with pioneering champagne-making techniques.

The name has become shorthand for luxury and celebration: They popped a bottle of Dom Pérignon to toast the deal.

Often shortened to Dom in casual speech.
