Tasting Notes

The 2002 Brut Blanc de Blancs Cuvée Belle Epoque is a striking Champagne endowed with considerable power and richness in its exuberant fruit. The wine blossoms on the plate with tons of richness and a broad, expansive voice to the fruit that is quite beautiful. A long, creamy finish layered with tropical fruit rounds things out nicely. This is easily one of the most memorable Champagnes I have tasted from Perrier-Jouet in some time.

Light, bright yellow. Leesy pear and nectarine aromas, with notes of lemon rind, jasmine and smoky herbs adding complexity. Bright and precise on entry, then fleshier in the mid-palate, offering musky orchard fruit and citrus flavors and mounting spiciness. Packs a solid punch on the long, clinging finish, which strongly echoes the smoke and floral notes.

Score: 92

Josh Raynolds, International Wine Cellar 01 November 2011

This elegant wine shows beautiful precision to the texture, with harmonious notes of lemon blossom, patisserie apple, vanilla-tinged brioche and savory mineral. Lovely for its subtlety and overall grace. Drink now through 2025. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 100 cases imported.
