Perrier-Jouet Belle Époque Rose Champagne 2010 1.5L

Description

Perrier-Jouet’s origin story dates back to 1810, when the cork supplier Pierre Nicolas Perrier married Rose Adelaide Jouet and began producing champagne under the name Perrier-Jouet the following year. Adele focused on vineyards and winemaking while Pierre Nicolas focused on sales and marketing. Shipments to Great Britain began in 1815, followed by the United States in 1837. After Charles Perrier, Henri Gallice and his younger brother Octave became Perrier-Jouet directors. Octave, an art lover, met Emile Galle in Paris and requested a design for Maison Perrier-Jouet, which became the iconic emblem of the brand. One of the world’s oldest champagnes, a Perrier-Jouet vintage 1825, was opened and tasted in 2009. Harold Macmillan, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1957 to 1963, favoured vintage Perrier-Jouet. This passion has been passed down through the generations, shaping the House’s philosophy of creative freedom and unconventional observation of nature. Maison Perrier-Jouet’s affinity with the Art Nouveau movement is expressed through the emblematic anemone motif illustrated by Emile Galle in 1902. Today, the House continues to reinvent luxury by collaborating with artists to create an extravagant universe. Along with their unique legacy, such as the creation of their first brut champagne in 1842 and the iconic floral Cuvee named Belle Epoque Cuvee, Perrier-Jouet also made history with the appointment of the first woman to hold the position of cellar master in 2020.
