A brilliantly paired Omakase menu at the hotel’s iconic Nobu restaurant has also been created exclusively for guests staying at the Dom Pérignon Suite. Nobu’s newly appointed Head Chef, Harold Hurtada, has designed a menu to perfectly illustrate the harmony between his exceptional cuisine and Dom Pérignon Blanc P2 1998, one of the most revered champagnes in the world. One&Only guests are invited to extend the privilege to their guests to share this rare and sought-after dining experience.

As part of the suite offering Dom Pérignon and One&Only Cape Town have taken laidback luxury to a whole new level.  Guests can lounge in effortless style around the largest infinity pool in the southern hemisphere, on an exquisite designer daybed whilst sipping on a perfectly chilled glass of Dom Pérignon Rosé 2004 as they enjoy paired pool side tapas.  The ultimate in sophistication and tranquility.

Experience the Dom Pérignon P2 dining experience at NOBU

World-class master chef Nobuyuki ‘Nobu’ Matsuhisa expanded his eponymous empire with the debut of his first restaurant in Africa when he took the decision to open Nobu at the One&Only Cape Town, his only restaurant in Africa.

A sweeping fan-like staircase leads the contemporary dining area and sushi counter, which is framed by a textured, translucent origami light that glides along the ceiling. No stranger to international culinary influences, Nobu gives classical Japanese cuisine a contemporary twist with Peruvian influences. Diners can indulge in fresh South African seafood and indigenous spices in mesmerising dishes such as Sake Roast Whitefish with Jalapeno or the Chocolate Bento Box; a dark chocolate fondant with green tea ice cream and a sesame seed tuile.  The upper level Nobu Lounge features a selection of Sakes including plum wines, Japanese beer and a choice of Sake and Shochu based cocktails.

About Dom Pérignon

Dom Pérignon champagne is committed to perfection, based upon a vision to create the best wine in the world. Always a vintage wine, our commitment to vintages is absolute: Dom Pérignon is made from only the best grapes and is declared only in the most exceptional years. The champagne’s intensity is based in precision, with a deeply distinctive style – so inviting yet so mysterious. Each Vintage has three Plénitudes, and embodies the Patrimoine de Création that is constantly renewed by Chef de Cave Richard Geoffroy.

About Dom Pérignon P2

Each evolution contributes to Dom Pérignon’s beautiful singularity. These privileged moments of succession are called “Plénitudes” – moments where the wine sings higher and stronger. From one Plénitude to the next, Dom Pérignon’s “Power of Creation” is affirmed in discreet perfection, as the intriguing drama of the vintages grows in the secret of the cellars.

The Second Plénitude is the result of sixteen years of elaboration in the cellars: an extra time of maturation on the lees, with constant monitoring. In this window of expression, the wine is majestic in its Dom Pérignon intensity. Here it expresses its scope, its expansion. This is Dom Pérignon P2, the Plénitude of energy.

Dom Pérignon’s creation is centered upon its absolute dedication to vintage wines. Dom Pérignon wines come exclusively from one year and one year only – a true challenge for a unique interpretation of the seasons, and for reinvention. Dom Pérignon also aspires for each of its vintages to have the potential to gradually transform, in a quest to find itself. Seemingly still in the obscurity of the cellars, in the long journey of its elaboration, the wine paradoxically takes on a decisive dynamic. It goes through a metamorphosis, a magnification. It keeps its original promise, yet expresses a new interpretation of classic codes.

The energy of Dom Pérignon P2 springs from seeming tranquility as the wine matures in the absolute calm and silence of the cellars. Seemingly still in its maturation, each bottle of Dom Pérignon is actually its own universe in which the life of the wine actively constructs itself, undergoing a metamorphosis, a constant evolution.

In its Second Plénitude, invigorated by its additional years of elaboration in the cellars, Dom Pérignon P2 1998 brazenly transcends the potential of the vintage. The opposing and complementary elements of its assemblage resound for an increasingly sharp intensity. Its aromatic persistence progresses like a wave that stimulates the penetrating nature of the wine. In P2 1998, the wine’s energy reaches its climax. Exalted in this Second Plénitude, Dom Pérignon’s dark, mineral, iodine, spiced singularity vibrates higher and clearer than ever.
