Perrier-Jouët is a prestigious French champagne brand celebrated for its delicate, elegant style and its deep connection to art and nature. The brand was founded in Epernay, France, in 1811 by Pierre Nicolas Marie Perrier and his wife, Adèle Jouët. From its inception, the founders sought to create a lighter, more floral style of champagne, a departure from the heavier wines of the time. The brand’s identity is intrinsically linked to its flagship cuvée, the Belle Epoque, which is instantly recognizable by its hand-painted bottle adorned with Japanese white anemones, a design created in 1902 by Art Nouveau artist Émile Gallé.

The brand’s philosophy is rooted in a unique winemaking approach that emphasizes the Chardonnay grape. Perrier-Jouët owns extensive vineyards in the revered Côte des Blancs region, which is known for its exceptional Chardonnay. This focus on the grape gives the champagnes their signature floral, citrus, and mineral-driven character, which is further refined through a meticulous aging process in their chalk cellars. Perrier-Jouët has earned a reputation for crafting champagnes that are praised for their finesse, consistency, and timeless elegance.
