Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque Blanc de Blancs 2014 is a prestige vintage champagne from Champagne, made exclusively from Chardonnay – the 2014 vintage is produced entirely from Chardonnay grapes and presented in the brand's distinctive, hand-painted bottle.

This is a cuvée of one terroir, one grape variety and one vintage. The champagne is made from grapes harvested on two historic plots, Bouron Leroi and Bouron du Midi, acquired by the house in the mid-19th century. Located in Cramant, this 6.8-hectare Grand Cru terroir, situated mid-slope, lies on chalky soils with a south-easterly exposure. These two plots benefit from the first rays of the morning sun, which favours slow and even ripening of the fruit.

The House of Perrier-Jouët declares a vintage only in exceptional years, making this cuvée a rarity. The dosage is usually just 8 grams per litre, and the wine spends at least six to eight years on the lees. This small production accounts for a mere 1% of total Belle Époque output.

In the glass it shows a very pale, clear, bright gold. The nose is rich yet delicate, characterised by aromas of white flowers, magnolia in particular. On the palate the wine is expressive, with a juicy texture and notes recalling lemon meringue dessert. At the stage the 2014 vintage has now reached, according to Richard Juhlin's tasting the florality has become more pronounced, while the palate is dominated by a caressing, buttery softness with tones of vanilla and peach.

The producer sees it as a gastronomic wine. Séverine Frerson considers it a wine for the table, pairing perfectly with noble seafood – scallop carpaccio with citrus zest, sea bass in a salt crust, turbot, lobster or langoustines. For optimal tasting, serving at 12°C is recommended.
