“The structure of this cuvée recalls the grace of the carnation, an emblematic motif of Art Nouveau. Its notes evoke the delicacy of this flower.” – Séverine Frerson, Maison Perrier-Jouët’s Cellar Master
This bottle of Perrier-Jouët’s iconic Belle Époque Champagne 2014 is wrapped in the house’s instantly recognisable and fittingly floral design.
Representing one of the world’s most famous Prestige Cuvée Champagnes, each bottle of Belle Epoque comes in a bottle adorned with hand-painted Art Nouveau flowers. It was crafted using Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and a dash of Pinot Meunier from the illustrious Grand Cru and Premier Cru villages of Cramant, Avize, Chouilly, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Mailly and Vertus. 2014 was a challenging rollercoaster of a vintage. Despite being mild and rainy, it has now been rated as an “outstanding” year in Champagne by the experts at Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, and with each new release enthusiasm for this initially overlooked vintage grows.
This release is rich, creamy and golden in style with spice and floral notes on the nose. Layered flavours of baked apple, juicy peach, poached pear, white blossom, tangy rhubarb and lemon lead to a lingering and rounded finish. This elegant and unique Champagne would make a wonderful gift idea for Christmas, weddings, birthdays and anniversaries, not to mention special occasions like Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day.
