The Winery

Perrier-Jouët

Based in the Épernay region of Champagne, Maison Perrier-Jouët is a sparkling wine house that was founded in 1811. The origin of the house began when cork supplier Pierre Nicolas Perrier married Rose Adelaide Jouët, the daughter of a Calvados producer. Perrier’s family owned several vineyards throughout the region of Champagne, and after one year of marriage he decided to utilize those family vineyards and begin producing Champagne under the label Perrier- Jouët. While Pierre focused on the sales and marketing, Adele began tending to the vineyards and winemaking practices. Today, the house owns over 160 acres of vineyards which have allowed them to continue to produce their prestige label Belle-Epoque.

Tasting Notes

WS94
This finely knit and lithe Champagne is smoky up front, opening into a lovely range of pastry, glazed apricot, lemon curd and candied ginger notes in the glass. Vibrant acidity drives the satinlike finish. Drink now through 2030.
WE93
The latest release in this series of wines with its Belle Epoque bottle is, as always, a blend dominated by Chardonnay. So although the dosage is relatively high, that is balanced by fine acidity and minerality. It is a stylish wine, ripe and with the maturity to drink now.
