A refined and subtle blend of charm and elegance. The multiple facets of each wine reveal a broad aromatic palette and a subtle persistence. Floral, stylish and diamond-cut: the hallmark of wines from the House of Perrier-Jouet.

A style passed down through the years, in the secrecy of the House Cellars by the Cellar Master, expert in their craftsmanship. |
