Perrier Jouet Belle Epoque 1988
/ #56837872
Belle Epoque from Perrier Jouët is the house's prestige cuvée and among the most well-known Champagnes with a floral touch – often symbolized by the iconic anemone-decorated bottle. The wine is produced in limited quantities and is traditionally a blend with a predominance of Chardonnay supplemented with Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. The style is typically elegant, with a focus on finesse and a relatively low dosage.
The 1988 vintage was generally a successful year in Champagne, characterised by classic structure, pronounced acidity and good ageing properties. Belle Epoque from this vintage is known for its refined balance between ripe fruit, floral and light nutty notes, as well as a freshness that continues to keep the wine vital even after several decades in optimal storage.
This bottle is therefore relevant for collectors or Champagne enthusiasts who appreciate mature, classic prestige editions of the region. Important sources such as Jancis Robinson and Wine Advocate have previously assessed Belle Epoque 1988 as very well structured with continued interesting development potential.
