Until year 2011, 'Perrier-Jouet Belle Epoque' was labeled as 'Fleur de Champagne' in the USA. The last vintage locally labeled as 'Fleur de Champagne' was 2002. Some large formats show the mention 'Reserve' or 'Special Reserve' on the capsule.
Critic tasting note: "Always a light, ethereal style of wine, this is also very fresh and still young. It will age with its taut minerality from the Chardonnay in the blend. A softer background will become toasty over the next few years. The vintage date on this bottle is 200 years after the foundation of this producer. Drink from 2021. Roger Voss" - 94/100, Wine Enthusiast

- Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque is a true icon — a rare and elegant champagne that celebrates the art of vintage and the excellence of the Perrier-Jouët vineyard. Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque is the original Belle Époque vintage cuvée, first appearing in 1964. Instantly recognisable throughout the world, its bottle is adorned with the graceful spray of Japanese white anemones created for Maison Perrier-Jouët by Art Nouveau master Emile Gallé in 1902.

Spring was much warmer and drier than usual with an unseasonably balmy March. A hot, dry April and May continued in this vein and vine growth was ahead of the n...
