Marks and reviews

Bettane+Desseauve

Pale and bright, lemon zest, savoury body and very dynamic. Beautiful character.

/100

Wine Spectator

Alison Napjus

Lightly toasty on the nose, this rich Champagne is well-cut, with chiseled acidity defining flavors of quince paste, lemon curd, brioche and white blossoms as they ride the fine, zesty mousse. Drink now. 2,500 cases imported.

/100

Decanter

Classic style with a reductive Chardonnay delicate nose of charcoaled orange and lemon peel. Carob, nougat and greengage on the palate, with a lifted freshness of lime macaron and white pepper.

/100

James Suckling

Delicate nose with lime tree and lemon pulp, green apple and butter. The tarte tatin-like character is supported by pinprick bubbles, medium body and a tight-knit structure with zesty acidity and good floral length, enhanced by a touch of chalky minerality. 100% chardonnay. Drink or hold.

/100

Falstaff

Medium golden yellow with silver reflections and a lively, fine mousse. Delicate cookie, yellow tropical fruit and some blossom honey on the nose, with a hint of grapefruit. Textured and elegant on the palate with a core of fresh pome fruit and a fine acidity, leading to pink grapefruit on the lingering finish. There's a mineral aftertaste, making for a multi-faceted food companion. (L2301421, PM).

/100

La RVF

A fairly fresh bouquet with thiol notes, lemon, citrus, a touch of vegetal character and menthol. The palate shows an easy, creamy Chardonnay style without great complexity.

Wine Enthusiast

Roger Voss

This Champagne is in the rich Perrier Jouët style. That means a crushed cookie aroma and ripe white fruits with a light texture. Taut minerality is balanced by apple pie flavors. The wine is ripe and ready to drink.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

William Kelley

The latest release of Perrier-Joët's NV Brut Blanc de Blancs is charming and expressive, bursting from the glass with aromas of crisp yellow orchard fruit, pear, white flowers and subtle hints of buttered toast. Medium to full-bodied, elegant and fine-boned, its pretty core of fruit is girdled by succulent acids, concluding with a delicately chalky finish.

Description

The liveliness and freshness of a Blanc de Blancs Champagne crafted from the finest Champagne terroirs

The estate

The Champagne House Perrier-Jouët was founded in 1811 by Pierre Perrier and his wife Adèle Jouët. Drawing on exceptional terroirs in Champagne (Aÿ, Mailly-Champagne, Avize and Cramant), the house's cuvées are renowned for their singular style, blending aromatic richness, refinement and subtlety. From 1861, Perrier-Jouët became the official champagne of Queen Victoria, and later of the French Imperial Court.

Owned since 1959 by the Champagne house GH Mumm, the House of Perrier-Jouët owes its distinctiveness in particular to the iconic bottle of its prestige cuvée "Belle Époque," designed in 1969 by Émile Gallé.

The vineyard

This bottle carries on the house's innovative spirit, which in the 1920s created its first 100% Chardonnay cuvées. Crafted from the finest terroirs of Champagne and made with a small proportion of reserve wines, this cuvée benefits from 3 years of aging on lees. Remarkably fresh and vibrant, it is the perfect expression of the Perrier-Jouët style.

The cuvée

Attentive to its environment, the Perrier-Jouët house presents this Perrier-Jouët Blanc de Blancs Champagne (bottle formats only) in an innovative gift box. Made in France from 100% natural fibers sourced from FSC-certified forests, the Ecobox is a sustainably designed gift box, made without any mineral oil and with limited ink and water consumption.

Winemaking and aging

Hand-harvested, the grapes undergo alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, followed by malolactic fermentation. This cuvée, with a dosage of 8 g/liter, benefits from an aging period more than twice as long as required by the appellation.

Blend

Chardonnay (100%).
