About this Item

Belle Epoque, 2006
2 (1 x 2) 750ml

A year after their marriage, in 1811, Pierre-Nicolas Perrier and Rose-Adélaïde Jouët founded Maison Perrier-Jouët. They chose Côte des Blancs, which is considered one of the best Champagne vineyards today. The house has stayed true to the founders’ passion for art and nature. The house regularly commissions creative talents for exclusive artworks and installations, and are known for their sustainable vineyards and environmentally responsible techniques.

Critics Ratings

‘Rich, nuanced and dense on the nose. Tasting this alongside Moët 2006, it is clear that this is much more ambitious. Good balance and lots of fresh acidity but a savoury undertow. Attractively dry finish. Not the tightest texture and surprisingly evolved for a 2006 but useful for drinking now.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com. 17/20 (Jun 2016)

‘This is a full-bodied and ripe wine, showing some toastiness as well as concentrated apple and peach flavors. There is a crisp edge to this opulent and rich wine. It has a great future: it is drinkable now, but will continue well into the 2020s.’ - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 95/100 (Dec 2013)
