Perrier-Jouet

The 'prestige' cuvée here is the lavishly bottled Belle Époque, complete with its enamelled anemones designed by Gallé, which appear in vintage, rose, and vintage Blanc de Blancs guises. The latter is a palpable champagne de terroir, coming exclusively from Cremant; the other two are graceful blends built on Chardonnay from Cremant complemented by lighter Pinots.
