First vintage of the Blanc de Blancs was 1993, 162 years after the house was realized by Pierre-Nicolas Perrier and his wife Rose Adélaïde Jouët. Chardonnay comes from two top Cramant crus, Bouron Leroi and Bouron du Midi, aged a minimum six years and with a dosage of eight g/L. There could not be another Blanc de Blancs as subtle, restrained and delicate as this Belle Epoque, the least startling of them all, simply put, a wine of indelible grace. Goes without saying that concentration is at peak and this is where the Champagne's great intensity gets its lift. Have rarely tasted anything so full and developed, here with obvious autolysis though that's simply not the leading aspect to focus upon. Once again texture is all and the palate wishes for nothing further, nor is anything left on the table. Drink date: 2025-2041. Tasted April 2025.
