Notes
|
| "A smooth and finely chiselled, subtle and rich wine, with myriad floral notes and a long finish. The Cuvée Belle Epoque Rosé 2004 represents a blend dominated by the Chardonnays of the Cramant and Avize Grand Crus. The Pinot Noir Grand Crus are from Mailly and Verzy, and are rich and powerful with red-fruit notes. A wine that has been carefully crafted, Belle Epoque Rosé owes its subtle style to the carefully selected still red wines (just 9% of the blend) that give a rosé shade without dominating the palate. Great care and expertise have been used to preserve Perrier-Jouët's elegant style despite the power of the red wines." —winemaker

Critics' Notes
|
| "Pale orange-pink. Spicy strawberry and raspberry aromas are complicated by blood orange, floral and smoky mineral qualities. Medium in weight, with firm, focused red fruit flavors joined by a juicier pear note on the back. Showing a youthfully restrained personality today; I'd give it a couple years to gain more richness." -Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar |
