Famed for its iconic Belle Époque cuvée, Perrier-Jouët is a benchmark in the Champagne region. The House is celebrated for its refined, approachable style, drawing on a 65-hectare estate vineyard, complemented by expertly sourced grapes — a long-standing tradition in Champagne.
What sets it apart is its vineyard, which is almost entirely classified as Grand Cru, with a strong emphasis on Chardonnay. Since 1811, Perrier-Jouët has crafted champagnes with a signature floral complexity, capturing the elegance and finesse of this emblematic grape variety.
