Perrier Jouet Champagne Brut Belle Epoque 2015 750 ML

It belongs to the elite of the Champagne Maisons. Perrier-Jouët, founded in 1811, is one of the region's most iconic Maisons. Its vineyards extend from the Cote des Blancs, to Reims and up to the Vallee de la Marne. They include, as they should, the three classic grape varieties of the region, from Pinot Noir to Meunier, but especially Chardonnay, which plays a very important role in Perrier-Jouët's production, in almost every cuvee. Another peculiarity of the Maison concerns the figure of the Chef de Cave who, in more than two hundred years of history, has seen "only" eight. Herve Deschamps, for example, at the helm of the winery since 1993, underwent a 10-year apprenticeship alongside his predecessor before becoming "tenured." In October 2020, after nearly 30 vintages, Deschamps finally passed the baton to Severine Frerson, the first woman to hold this position in the history of the Maison. After all, to carry out this difficult task in the best possible way, the Chef de Cave must not only be a great technician but must also have a perfect knowledge of all the crus, grapes and blends in order to be able to give birth, year after year, to wines characterized by a clearly recognizable stylistic figure.\n
