Perrier Jouët

Perrier-Jouët is a prestigious French champagne house. It is famous for its floral, elegant and refined style, epitomised by its iconic Belle Époque cuvée. Committed to art and nature, it is distinguished by its emblem: the anemone designed by Émile Gallé. Today, it is part of the Pernod Ricard group and continues to cultivate its exceptional heritage.

PERRIER JOUËT HISTORY

The House was founded by Pierre-Nicolas Perrier and Rose-Adélaïde Jouët in 1811.
Passionate about nature, art and wine, they quickly established a unique style, combining finesse and elegance. From the outset, the house stood out for the quality of its champagnes, which were often exported internationally, particularly to England. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Belle Époque cuvée was created, famous for its bottle decorated with white anemones designed by Émile Gallé, master of Art Nouveau. This link with art became a strong signature of the House. Perrier-Jouët has preserved its artisanal expertise while innovating in its production methods.
The house owns one of the oldest vineyards in Champagne, with part of its terroir classified as Grand Cru. Today, Séverine Frerson, the eighth cellar master in the history of the House, continues to promote the elegance of Champagne throughout the world.

PERRIER-JOUËT EXPERTISE

Perrier-Jouët has built its reputation on over two centuries of expertise passed down from generation to generation. It is distinguished by a unique style characterised by elegance, finesse and delicate floral aromas. This distinctive character comes largely from Chardonnay, which forms the heart of its blends. The cellar master ensures that the house's floral identity is preserved in each cuvée, working with precision to achieve balance and freshness. The Perrier-Jouët vineyard covers 65 hectares, most of which are classified as Grands Crus. It is located on the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims, two exceptional terroirs. Each plot is worked with particular attention to respecting biodiversity. The house practises sustainable viticulture, working closely with nature.

"LA BELLE EPOQUE" HOUSE

Built at the end of the 18th century, this elegant residence houses the largest private collection of French Art Nouveau in Europe. In 1850, Eugène Gallice, brother-in-law and partner of Charles Perrier, son of the founders, acquired an elegant building for his family. Right next door, Charles had Château Perrier built, in whose gardens he installed vast greenhouses to indulge his passion for botany. It was here that the beginnings of a floral and complex style were developed, which now instantly distinguishes the House's champagnes.

A great collector and art lover, Octave Gallice called on Émile Gallé in 1902 to create a bottle decorated with white anemones, which became the emblem of the Belle Époque cuvée. This strong link with Art Nouveau was reinforced in the 1980s, when Michel Budin transformed the family home into a veritable sanctuary of art and savoir-vivre. Today, the Belle Époque House welcomes guests to a place where art, nature and champagne coexist in harmony. It embodies both Perrier-Jouët's artistic heritage and its refined vision of French luxury.
