A quintessential Chardonnay, the 2012 Belle Epoque Blanc de Blancs champagne displays a brilliant finesse linked with great generosity. Its refined and delicate aromas are a blend of white flowers, juicy summer fruits and warm brioche. The palate has great depth, with some well-controlled power and also freshness, silkiness and infinite length. A paragon of subtlety and precision with an airy finish.

A rarity, this vineyard is almost entirely located in the Grands Crus, excelling in the production of Chardonnay. Since 1811, Perrier-Jouët has therefore established itself through a floral and complex style that reveals all the subtlety of this emblematic grape variety.
