BELLE ÉPOQUE ROSÉ
Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque Rosé is a fascinating cuvée – subtle and delicate, yet also warm and embracing, as if it were wrapping you in silk.
Ideal Pairings
Lobster
Fig
Red lentils
The eyeA sparkling, luminous pale pink.
The noseAromas of pomegranate, raspberry and strawberry and crème de cassis.
The palateSubtle floral notes of orange blossom & elderberry with overtone of raspberry fruit.
This wine’s combination of richness and delicacy reminds me of the texture of a ranunculus – preferably a beautiful pale pink one, similar in colour to Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque Rosé.SÉVERINE FRERSON
Heritage
True to the free spirit of Maison Perrier-Jouët, Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque Rosé is a resolutely original champagne which combines rarity with the ability to surprise. First created in 1978, it is crafted only in exceptional years and produced in extremely limited quantities.
The moment
“Like all our vintage cuvées, Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque Rosé needs to be enjoyed in a leisurely manner, says Séverine Frerson. I would savour it with a meal, in a warm, convivial ambiance that reflects its character.” Ideal pairings include salmon or tuna cooked on one side only, salmon with cranberry sauce, pigeon or thinly sliced duck breast.
