Perrier-Jouet Belle Epoque Rose
The most delicate champagne from the collection, Perrier-Jouet Belle Epoque Rose is blended with the same secrets as the Belle Epoque Millesime vintage. It has a slightly salmon-pink color due to a minimal touch of red wine from the Crus de Noirs. Receiving 93 points from Wine Spectator, Belle Epoque Rose has notes of apricot and kumquat fruits intertwined with a satiny mousse. Notes of a rich, minerally underpinning can be found accompanying flavors of oyster shells, pastry, and smoked almond. This Rose has a vibrant, lasting finish and only gets better with age. This product is commonly known as Perrier-Jouet Fleur de Champagne Rose.
Perrier-Jouet Belle Epoque Rose
Perrier-Jouët was started in 1811 when Pierre-Nicolas Perrier married Adele Jouët. Since then, the House of Perrier-Jouët has created wines with unique signatures: floral, diamond-cut, and stylish. Although many Champagne houses were established before Perrier-Jouet, they were the first to display the year of the vintage on the bottles. You can say this company is characterized by their uncompromising standards – if a harvest does not meet their exact quality and touchstone (which does occasionally happen,) the House will abandon that production. A collection of different wines with extraordinary years are selected, yet the cellars are kept a secret. During the early 20th century, the House obtained two infamous pieces of land: The Bourons Leroy and Bourons du Midi. ‘Champagne’s magic triangle’ forms the backbone of the House’s vineyards to help reach perfection. Each cuvee carries the 5 basic principles that are kept secret by the House yet meet the criteria of the Champagne AOC. Vines have been owned by the Perrier-Jouet family since the 18th century. The raw material available at their fingertips helped the family enrich their products based on the style they wish to depict at the time. Their Chardonnay vines lend a particular characteristic to the House wines.

Besides their high quality standards, the House has also tackled the fight against counterfeiting. You can really say the company strives for perfection and perfection is what guarantees Perrier-Jouët spots at the most prestigious tables, like the royal courts of Napoleon III and Queen Victoria. Perrier-Jouet Belle Epoque is the star of the Rose Ball for several years since Princess Grace of Monaco avowed her favorite champagne to be the bottle with the iconic anemone. This iconic bottle portrays hand-painted flowers, making each bottle a bit unique.
