Perrier-Jouet Champagne Belle Epoque Rose 2012

Wine Advocate 93 points - The 2012 Brut Rose Belle Epoque is showing very well and must rank as one of the finest recent releases of this Chardonnay-based prestige cuvee from Perrier-Jouet. Offering up a pretty bouquet of white peach, spring flowers, strawberry, freshly baked bread and warm biscuits, it’s medium to full-bodied, elegant and seamless, its delicately fleshy core underpinned by lively acids and complemented by a beautifully refined mousse..April/2020

The Belle Epoque Rose vintage is the most delicate and elegant expression of the collection. Blended according to the same production secrets as the Belle Epoque Millesime vintage, it owes its slightly salmon-pink colour to a small percentage of red wine from the crus de noirs.
