About this Item
A year after their marriage, in 1811, Pierre-Nicolas Perrier and Rose-Adélaïde Jouët founded Maison Perrier-Jouët. They chose Côte des Blancs, which is considered one of the best Champagne vineyards today. The house has stayed true to the founders’ passion for art and nature. The house regularly commissions creative talents for exclusive artworks and installations, and are known for their sustainable vineyards and environmentally responsible techniques.

Critics Ratings
‘Dark straw. Much, much more evolved on the nose than the others. Open texture without the real density of the best 2002s. A little sweet and soft. Medium weight.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com. 17/20 (Nov 2012)
‘With its distinctive flower bottle, this is an immediately recognizable Champagne, both in its looks and its distinctive Perrier-Jouët elegance. Lively white fruits play with acidity and a tangy backbone of apple skins. Age this for 4–5 years and maybe more.’ - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 93/100 (Dec 2010)
