About this Item

Perrier-Jouët
Belle Epoque, 1996
1 (1 x 1) 1500ml

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

‘Savoury, exciting, complex nose with real lift. More evolved than most, but quite a strong impact. Dense, brisk, rewarding. Lots there – great concentration.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com. 18/20 (Oct 2004)

‘The famous Belle Epoque bottle design is based on a 1902 bottle of Emile Gallé. Today's blend of this prestige cuvée is a fine balance between Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, crisp and fresh in a ripe, mature aperitif style. It is lively but complex, showing some toasty flavors to complement the rich, ripe green fruit tastes. Great balance and elegance.’ - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 93/100 (Dec 2004)
