Champagne Perrier-Jouët - Belle Epoque Blanc de Blancs 2006

 

Guide VERON des Champagnes 2022
(around 360 euros per bottle)
Mythical champagne

Aspect

Gold, brilliant with thousand bubbles. 

Nose

Bright elegance with heady aromas of apple, pear and citrus fruits, underlined by scents of hazelnut and white flowers, odes to the Chardonnay selected in 2006 in two historic plots of the house (6.8 ha in the localities « Bouron Leroi » and « Bouron du Midi »), classified as Grand Cru in Cramant.

Palate

The vertiginous purity, enhanced by the minerality of the chalk of the Côte des Blancs, unveils a silky and radiant roundness, result of over 10 years of ageing on laths of the bottles, with slow autolysis of the prise de mousse yeasts.

With this reserved and emblematic cuvée Belle Epoque Blanc de Blancs 2006, Séverine Frerson, cellar master of the Champagne house Perrier-Jouët, reveals the quintessence of the Chardonnay.
