Winemaker Notes

Champagne Joseph Perrier teams up with talented artist Jordane Saget for the

new 2014 vintage, marking the 175th anniversary of Joséphine Perrier’s marriage and the genesis of the cuvée.

The color of this wine approaches a very bright golden yellow. Subtle and inspiring, revealing dried nut aromas such as lightly grilled hazelnuts, the promise of elegance and complexity to come. The palate begins on juicy ripe pears and other white fruits, followed by delicately dusted notes of lily of the valley, complemented by spicy and peppery flavors. A subtle, bewitching, complex palate with a very good length. Very good length.

Blend: 60% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir

    The latest release of this producer's prestige cuvée comes in a bottle designed by artist Jordane Saget. It is a fine, 40/60 blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay giving white fruits and tight citrus flavors. The Champagne's elegance and mature fruitiness is impressive.

Joseph Perrier Joseph Perrier Cellar Winery Image
Joseph Perrier was founded in 1825 by a young Châlons en Champagne native entrepreneur, and run by the same family since 6 generations. The galleries are of Gallo-Roman origin and extend over three kilometers in length. The chalk is pierced with skylights, ensuring optimal natural ventilation. Bottles lie aging on laths and in pupitres in the galleries which are located next to the winery and the production lines. These galleries are located all on one level sheltered within the hill overlooking the House and are protected by their arboretum. The Fourmon family owns and manages 22 hectares of vineyards in Cumières and Hautvillers. They harvest only the best through meticulous selection and picking by hand in small baskets to preserve the delicacy and quality of the grapes. The House of Joseph Perrier is an invididual and historic one. Each champagne is carefully made to demonstrate the precise and particular style of the cuvée. In addition to the Royal Cuvées, supplied to Queen Victoria and King Edward VII, they have created many special vintage champagnes.

Representing the topmost expression of a Champagne house, a vintage Champagne is one made from the produce of a single, superior harvest year. Vintage Champagnes account for a mere 5% of total Champagne production and are produced about three times in a decade. Champagne is typically made as a blend of multiple years in order to preserve the house style; these will have non-vintage, or simply, NV on the label. The term, "vintage," as it applies to all wine, simply means a single harvest year.

Associated with luxury, celebration, and romance, the region, Champagne, is home to the world’s most prized sparkling wine. In order to bear the label, ‘Champagne’, a sparkling wine must originate from this northeastern region of France—called Champagne—and adhere to strict quality standards. Made up of the three towns Reims, Épernay, and Aÿ, it was here that the traditional method of sparkling wine production was both invented and perfected, birthing a winemaking technique as well as a flavor profile that is now emulated worldwide.

Well-drained, limestone and chalky soil defines much of the region, which lend a mineral component to its wines. Champagne’s cold, continental climate promotes ample acidity in its grapes but weather differences from year to year can create significant variation between vintages. While vintage Champagnes are produced in exceptional years, non-vintage cuvées are produced annually from a blend of several years in order to produce Champagnes that maintain a consistent house style.

With nearly negligible exceptions, . These can be blended together or bottled as individual varietal Champagnes, depending on the final style of wine desired. Chardonnay, the only white variety, contributes freshness, elegance, lively acidity and notes of citrus, orchard fruit and white flowers. Pinot Noir and its relative Pinot Meunier, provide the backbone to many blends, adding structure, body and supple red fruit flavors. Wines with a large proportion of Pinot Meunier will be ready to drink earlier, while Pinot Noir contributes to longevity. Whether it is white or rosé, most Champagne is made from a blend of red and white grapes—and uniquely, rosé is often produce by blending together red and white wine. A Champagne made exclusively from Chardonnay will be labeled as ‘blanc de blancs,’ while ones comprised of only red grapes are called ‘blanc de noirs.’
