The Perrier-Jouët Cuvée Belle Epoque 2016 is an outstanding prestige vintage Champagne from the renowned Maison Perrier-Jouët, celebrated since 1811 for its refined style and unmistakable floral elegance. This millésime edition is crafted from a carefully selected assemblage of Grand Cru parcels from the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims, bringing together precision, finesse, and an elegant structure that defines this iconic collection.The blend is composed of 50% Chardonnay, which delivers the Maison’s signature floral expression, 45% Pinot Noir, adding body and fruit-driven depth, and 5% Pinot Meunier, contributing a rounded and approachable touch. After more than six years of ageing on the lees, the Champagne reveals the vintage at its finest—balanced, focused, and full of vibrant tension.In the glass, Belle Epoque 2016 shows a pale golden straw-yellow colour with delicate green reflections, accompanied by a fine and persistent stream of bubbles. The varietal combination creates a layered bouquet: subtle white flowers and citrus notes blend with hints of white peach and grapefruit, enhanced by delicate spicy and fruity nuances. The aromatic profile is bright and floral, clearly reflecting Perrier-Jouët’s distinctive signature.On the palate, the 2016 vintage delivers an elegant, finely tuned structure with clear minerality, harmonious acidity, and a long, well-balanced finish. The aromatic complexity remains present throughout, while the silky mousse texture adds seamless harmony. Overall, Belle Epoque 2016 is a refined and expressive vintage Champagne, beautifully uniting tradition, terroir, and the art of blending in an exceptional way.
