Belle Epoque Blanc de Blancs
2014
“Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque Blanc de Blancs is the jewel of the collection – the quintessential expression of Chardonnay in the style of Maison Perrier-Jouët.”
THE EYE
A very pale, pure, clear gold.
THE NOSE
Abundant aromas of white flowers, especially
magnolia, complemented by acacia, almond,
apricot and ginger.

THE PALATE
An inviting, expressive wine, which evolves towards acertain minerality. Delicious hints of lemon meringue pie.
For its elegance, its refinement and its wonderful silken texture, I associate Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque Blanc de Blancs with a white orchid, my favourite flower.

Pure and precise, delicate and complex, Perrier-Jouët Blanc de Blancs has an elegant, silken texture, almost infinite length on the palate, and – last but by no means least – great potential for ageing.

Belle Epoque Blanc de Blancs 2014
This precious, single-varietal cuvée made from 100% Chardonnay is the result of an outstanding vintage combined with unique expertise.
In 2014, the mild, wet winter was followed by a dry and sunny spring and a summer marked by abundant rainfall and contrasting temperatures. These weather conditions were propitious to harvesting grapes at optimal ripeness in the finest Champagne terroirs, the great growths in the Côte des Blancs.

The resulting still wines were powerful and complex with fruity notes and a perfect balance between sugar and acidity.
After meticulous blending by Perrier-Jouët’s Cellar Master and at least 6 years’ ageing in the house’s cellars, Belle Epoque Blanc de Blancs 2014 is an elegant cuvée with a striking pale golden colour. Its rich and delicate nose gives way to a silky texture and delicious notes on the palate.
