Description

Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque 2008 is a vintage, prestige-cuvée Champagne produced by Perrier-Jouët in Reims, France. First appearing in 1964 and only made in exceptional vintages, Belle Époque is instantly recognisable throughout the world, its bottle adorned with the graceful spray of Japanese white anemones created for Maison Perrier-Jouët by Art Nouveau master Emile Gallé in 1902. The 2008 is wonderfully vibrant but also shows lovely delicacy and subtle structure. It is a blend of 50% Chardonnay from the Grands Crus of Cramant and Avize, 45% Pinot and 5% Pinot Meunier.
