Champagne AOC 'Grand Brut' (750 ml. boxed) Perrier-Jouet
Champagne Grand Brut by Perrier-Jouët is an elegant and harmonious cuvée, embodying the floral and refined style of the Maison. The blend is composed of 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Pinot Meunier, and 20% Chardonnay, sourced from over fifty crus across Champagne. Crafted using the traditional méthode champenoise, the grapes undergo gentle pressing and temperature-controlled fermentation. The wine is then aged on the lees for about 36 months, enhancing its creamy texture and aromatic complexity. On the nose, it reveals notes of white flowers, citrus, yellow fruit, and light toasty hints, while the palate is balanced, fresh, and persistent, with a fine and lively perlage. A versatile and sophisticated Grand Brut, ideal as an apéritif or paired with delicate fish dishes, shellfish, or white meats. A perfect expression of the Perrier-Jouët signature style.

Color: light golden yellow with greenish reflections, clear and brilliant.
Perlage: fine and continuous, a sign of long aging on the lees and of a winemaking process carried out according to the traditional canons of Champagne.
Bouquet: elegant and airy, with a delicate floral profile dominated by white flowers such as acacia and hawthorn, which intertwine with notes of green apple, pear and citrus. This is followed by sweeter hints of brioche, fresh almond and a hint of light honey, which give roundness without compromising the overall freshness.
Taste: balanced and lively structure. The attack is fresh, guided by a well-integrated acidity that supports the fruity notes perceived by the nose. The bubble is creamy, well-melted into the texture of the wine. The finish is clean and persistent, with hints of white-fleshed fruit and a subtle mineral note that invites the next sip.

THE COMPANY
Two centuries of traditions are a precious baggage, represented by a true craftsmanship savoir-faire that is passed on from generation to generation since 1811. It is precisely on this date that the spouses Pierre-Nicolas Perrier and Adèle Jouët founded the Maison Perrier-Jouët , which counts today 65 hectares of vines, almost totally classified at the top of the Grand Cru scale. As a pioneer in traceability and counterfeiting, Maison Perrier-Jouët was the first winery to make the vintage of its millesimate bottles. Among the rows, careful and forward-looking choices are all about obtaining valuable and excellent grapes, and the fruits harvested in the five major cruces of what is called the "magical champagne triangle" - composed of Cramant, Avize, Mailly, Aÿ and Dizy - they are present in all those who are the cuvée of the maison. Chardonnay bouquets with generous and aromatic scents, then pinot black, fresh and delicate, and pinot meunier, generous and fruity, are worked in the cellar without looking for shortcuts, pursuing the highest quality level without ever compromising. From "Grand Brut" to "Blason Rosé", up to the millennium "Belle Epoque", producing Champagne punctually distinguished by refined, intense and sought-after style, the company offers a range of unmistakable labels, characterized by a wide aromatic persistence elegant. All this is the result of knowledge transmitted over time and in the silence of the cellars, where the chefs of caves have cultivated and increased an important know-how that, as is not enough, is often enriched and embellished by internationally renowned artists who starting in 1902, they decorate with their works the bottles that retain the most important cuvée of the maison, almost as a celebration of Champagne tasting in a kind of marriage that combines art, poetry and beauty of everyday life.
