Perrier-Jouët Grand Brut NV + 2 Glasses Set

Perrier-Jouët's origin story dates back to 1810, when the cork supplier Pierre Nicolas Perrier married Rose Adélaide Jouët and began producing champagne under the name Perrier-Jouët the following year. Adèle focused on vineyards and winemaking while Pierre Nicolas focused on sales and marketing. Shipments to Great Britain began in 1815, followed by the United States in 1837. After Charles Perrier, Henri Gallice and his younger brother Octave became Perrier-Jouët directors. Octave, an art lover, met Emile Gallé in Paris and requested a design for Maison Perrier-Jouët, which became the iconic emblem of the brand. One of the world's oldest champagnes, a Perrier-Jouët vintage 1825, was opened and tasted in 2009. Harold Macmillan, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1957 to 1963, favoured vintage Perrier-Jouët. This passion has been passed down through the generations, shaping the House's philosophy of creative freedom and unconventional observation of nature. Maison Perrier-Jouët's affinity with the Art Nouveau movement is expressed through the emblematic anemone motif illustrated by Emile Gallé in 1902. Today, the House continues to reinvent luxury by collaborating with artists to create an extravagant universe. Along with their unique legacy, such as the creation of their first brut champagne in 1842 and the iconic floral Cuvée named Belle Epoque Cuvée, Perrier-Jouët also made history with the appointment of the first woman to hold the position of cellar master in 2020. Perrier-Jouët produces a wide range of vintage and non-vintage cuvée, with an annual production of approximately 3,000,000 bottles. The pride of the brand is its prestige label, Belle Epoque. With 266 acres of vineyards situated in the heart of Champagne, Perrier-Jouët maintains control over the quality and consistency of its champagne production. More than half of its vineyards are located in the Grand Crus of Cramant and Avize, allowing Perrier-Jouët to create exceptional champagne that is unparalleled in quality and taste. Today, as a member of the Pernod Ricard group of brands, Perrier-Jouët's legacy of exceptional champagne-making continues to thrive and evolve. Through their dedication to quality and innovation, Perrier-Jouët remains one of the most respected and iconic champagne brands in the world.

Perrier-Jouët Grand Brut is a champagne with a rich heritage that dates back to 1846, when Maison Perrier-Jouët revolutionized the world of champagne with its historic Cuvée K. This groundbreaking champagne was the first of its kind, introducing the concept of a lightly dosed champagne, now known as "brut". During a time when champagnes typically contained high sugar levels reaching up to 40%, Cuvée K dared to be different. It was dosed at a sugar level of less than 5%, a daringly low amount for that era. This truly marked a turning point in the history of champagne, as Maison Perrier-Jouët paved the way for the rise of brut champagnes. The success of Cuvée K can be attributed to Maison Perrier-Jouët's philosophy of using high-quality grapes that required very little added sugar. This commitment to sourcing exceptional grapes has been a guiding principle for the House throughout the years, allowing them to craft brut champagnes that maintain the purity and integrity of the fruit. Perrier-Jouët Grand Brut carries on this legacy, remaining true to Maison Perrier-Jouët's philosophy of minimal sugar dosage. It is a champagne that beautifully showcases the natural qualities of the grapes used in its creation, resulting in a vibrant and expressive taste experience.
