Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque Brut 2016

DESCRIPTION
Made from grapes harvested in a single year, Belle Epoque Brut 2016 is a wonderfully complex and rare wine. It displays a golden colour and fresh, floral flavours underpinned by a delicate, silky texture.

The Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque vintage cuvées are only produced during years when the weather conditions are close to perfection. In 2016, the hot, dry summer in the Champagne region led to optimal ripening, with the grape bunches displaying a perfect balance between sugar and acidity. 

TASTING NOTE

Nose: Primary aromas marked by a lovely floral freshness which evolves towards white fruit like poached pear, as well as citrus, with zest of lemon and orange.
Palate: The opening is precise and full of freshness thanks to notes of lemon zest and to minerality.
