Perrier Jouët Grand Brut Champagne
| Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\nThe Perrier-Jou\u00ebt Grand Brut is delicate, elegant and balanced. The striking freshness and vivacity of the floral and fruity fragrances (yellow fruits and fresh fruits) take root, before giving way to subtle notes of vanilla and butter, lending the wine a fruity and consistent character.\r\nThe notes of cherry plum, lemon and bergamot orange emerge first, then make way for the flowers of fruit trees, such as lime and honeysuckle. These are followed by notes of butter, madeleine cakes and vanilla sugar. Lingering notes of grapefruit, white peaches, green pears, apple trees and green hazelnuts round off the taste.\r\nPerrier-Jou\u00ebt Grand Brut can be matched with dishes such as carpaccio of fish or white meats. Its lively vivacity works well with crisp vegetables and tofu.\r\nAbout Perrier-Jou\u00ebt\r\nAt Maison Perrier-Jou\u00ebt, the history of champagne began over 200 years ago. The House was founded by two independent-minded free spirits who shared a passion for art and nature \u2013 and a bold vision for champagne. The House has stayed true to this founding philosophy of creative freedom and an unconventional observation of nature ever since.\r\nPierre-Nicolas Perrier and Rose-Ad\u00e9la\u00efde Jou\u00ebt shared a love of nature and the arts. She was a cultured young woman from a Norman merchant family; he a masterful wine merchant and botanist. A year after their wedding, in 1811 they founded Maison Perrier-Jou\u00ebt: born of their desire to create a Champagne House with a difference.\r\nThe founders\u2019 passion for art, nature and champagne has been passed down through the generations. Their son Charles Perrier, a botanist like his father, took over the House in 1848. The family philosophy of creative freedom and an unconventional observation of nature is intrinsic to the history of champagne. These values shape Maison Perrier-Jou\u00ebt to this day.\r\nThanks to a legacy of continuity, Maison Perrier-Jou\u00ebt has acquired unparalleled expertise in revealing the essence of Chardonnay. Remarkably, Herv\u00e9 Deschamps is only the seventh cellar master at the Champagne House in over 200 years. He will, in turn, ensure his expertise is passed on to his successor\u00a0S\u00e9verine Frerson, the House\u2019s first female cellar master. |
