Gleneagles and Dom Pérignon unveil new private dining experience
The Gleneagles Hotel has partnered with Dom Pérignon to launch a new private dining and tasting concept centred on Champagne pairings, Scottish produce and rare vintages.
The Gleneagles Hotel and Dom Pérignon have announced a new partnership that will see the launch of The Cellar x Dom Pérignon, a private dining and tasting experience at the Scottish hotel.
Available to book from 15 June 2026, the experience combines a five-course menu created by Gleneagles’ chefs with a selection of Dom Pérignon cuvées. The dining room accommodates up to 12 guests and has been designed to reflect the shared heritage and sense of place of both brands.
Historic cellar transformed
Located behind the scenes at Gleneagles, The Cellar has served as the hotel’s storage and ageing space for rare wines and spirits for more than 100 years. According to the hotel, trains once transported wines from London, with bottles lowered by hand into the cellar below.
The space has now been converted into a private dining room while remaining a working cellar. It sits among Gleneagles’ collection of Burgundy, Bordeaux and Super Tuscan wines and features bespoke Champagne cabinets designed to store Dom Pérignon at its optimum ageing and serving temperature.
Design details reference Dom Pérignon’s home at the Abbey of Hautvillers in Épernay, including a custom-made travertine dining table inspired by the chalk, clay and limestone soils of the Champagne region. The table was delivered by crane in two sections through a service hatch that was last used to unload bottles from delivery trains in the 1920s and 1930s.

Tasting experiences
The signature Dom Pérignon Experience begins with two glasses of Dom Pérignon Vintage 2017 served alongside King’s Golden Oscietra Caviar and accompaniments. Guests then enjoy a five-course tasting menu, plus an amuse bouche and pre-dessert, with each course paired with a different Dom Pérignon expression, including Dom Pérignon Vintage 2017, Dom Pérignon Rosé 2010 and Dom Pérignon Vintage 2008 Plénitude 2.
The Cellar also houses a library of more than 40 Dom Pérignon rarities. Guests can book bespoke tastings, including vertical tastings and selections from landmark vintages.
Other experiences available include a Dom Pérignon & Canapé Reception featuring two glasses of Dom Pérignon Vintage 2017 and four canapés per person, a Dom Pérignon Tasting with five Dom Pérignon expressions paired with canapés, and The Cellar Experience, which pairs the tasting menu with wines selected from the Gleneagles wine list.
The Cellar x Dom Pérignon will be available to book through the Gleneagles website from 15 June 2026. Guests must reserve the full dining experience at least three weeks in advance, while tastings can be booked up to three days ahead. Prices start from £150 per person, rising to £695 per person for The Dom Pérignon Experience.
