A demonstration of style that represents the essence of the art of Champagne.
Perrier-Joüet Belle Époque Brut 2012 MG
Perrier-Jouët's 2012 La Belle Époque in Magnum format is a monumental work, the pinnacle of the floral refinement of Champagne. 2012 is considered a legendary vintage, capable of combining generous maturity with vibrant acidity, characteristics that in the large format (Magnum) elevate to an unparalleled longevity and aromatic precision. The Chef de Cave has created a blend where the Chardonnay from Cramant and Avize dances with the Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: clear notes of hawthorn, linden, and honeysuckle merge with deep hints of white pear, fresh ginger, buttery brioche, and a mineral trace reminiscent of pure chalk. On the palate, it is sumptuous and three-dimensional;The entrance is silky, dominated by a dense yet incredibly agile texture, with a noble bubble that caresses the palate and extends towards a savory, endless finish with an interminable aromatic persistence, characterized by an aristocratic balsamic freshness.
