Elegant and finely balanced, with a subtle vein of smoky minerality underscoring juicy poached apple, candied lemon zest, gingersnap and honey notes. A fine aperitif. Drink now through 2016. –AN

This offers fresh and attractive fruit aromas with a gently flinty, white-peach and white-flower fragrance on offer. The palate has an attractive, fresh and crisp feel with creamy, crispy texture at the finish. Good NV. Drink now.

The NV Grand Brut is a pleasing, creamy-textured wine with good definition in its flavors and lovely overall harmony. The house’s NV Brut is 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Pinot Meunier and 20% Chardonnay, with 10-20% of reserve wines added. Disgorged on November 14th, 2007. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2010. <br/><br/>Perrier-Jouet is a large producer based in Epernay that is most famous for its striking “flower bottle” which remains one of Champagne’s most recognizable designs. The house favors a perceptibly sweet style, with dosage levels that are towards the high end of the range for the region. Few producers make it harder than Perrier-Jouet to discern a lot number. Readers will have to look in the punt of the bottles for the small, raised code which can then be traced back to a disgorgement date. Surely there must be a more consumer-friendly way to do things.

Producer
Perrier-Jouët
Perhaps the most recognizable bottles in the appellation, Perrier-Jouët’s painted Belle Époque labels can be instantly identified by their flowery Art Nouveau embellishments. The marriage of Pierre-Nicolas Perrier and Adèle Jouët in 1811 set the stage for the now 200-year-old Maison Perrier Jouët. Currently owned by the Pernod Ricard group, the Champagne House is historically known for being one of the pioneers that led to the world’s first Brut in 1856. Today, the dryer styled Grand Brut exemplifies the classic house spirit, with a floral, elegant and structured Champagne. Widely acclaimed for its Belle Époque, and not only for the wines’ decorated bottles, but for its impressive tightly wound style of a Chardonnay-based Champagne. Characterized by the large presence of Chardonnay, the maison also produces a compelling Brut Rosé, and a delicate Belle Époque Rosé.
