Two centuries of tradition constitute a precious heritage, represented by a true artisanal savoir-faire that has been passed down from generation to generation since 1811. It was on this date that the couple Pierre-Nicolas Perrier and Adèle Jouët founded the Maison Perrier-Jouët, which today has 65 hectares of vineyards, almost all classified at the top of the Grand Cru scale. A pioneer in the field of traceability and the fight against counterfeiting, the Maison Perrier-Jouët was the first winery to include the vintage on its vintage bottles.
Among the rows, careful and far-sighted choices are all aimed at obtaining fine and excellent grapes, and the fruits harvested in the five main crus of what is defined as the “magic triangle of Champagne” - composed of Cramant, Avize, Mailly, Aÿ and Dizy - are punctually present in all the maison's cuvées. Bunches of chardonnay with generous and aromatic scents, then of pinot noir, fresh and delicate, and finally of pinot meunier, also generous and fruity, are worked in the cellar without looking for shortcuts, pursuing the highest level of quality without ever compromising.
From “Grand Brut” to “Blason Rosé”, up to the “Belle Epoque” vintages, producing Champagnes that are punctually distinguished by a refined, intense and sophisticated style, the company offers a range of labels with unmistakable characteristics, characterised by a broad and elegant aromatic persistence. All this is the result of knowledge passed down over time and in the silence of the cellars, where the chef de cave have cultivated and increased an important know-how that, as if that were not enough, is often enriched and embellished by internationally renowned artists who, since 1902, have decorated with their works the bottles that preserve the most important cuvées of the maison, almost as if to celebrate the tasting of Champagne in a sort of union that unites art, poetry and the beauty of everyday life.
