Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque Blanc de Blancs 2006
Descripción
Belle Époque es la colección más icónica de la maison asentada en Épernay, y su millésime Blanc de Blancs la quintaesencia de la Chardonnay. La blanca reina de Champagne exhibe en él toda su frescura y pureza. "Por su elegancia, refinamiento y maravillosa textura sedosa, asocio Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque Blanc de Blancs al satén más fino", asegura la octava y actual chef de cave de la casa, Séverine Frerson. La cuvée únicamente se elabora en añadas en las que las condiciones fueron perfectas por lo que poder tener entre las manos la botella decorada con las famosas anémonas japonesas es una lujosa y exclusiva rareza.

Opinión de los críticos
Glistening golden hue. Expressive, complex nose marrying floral and fruity tones with menthol notes and a touch of biscuit. Very delicate feel on the palate with the same intense aromas. This is a rich, complete and mature Blanc de Blancs.
The nose seems very mature, the wine is golden, more so than one would expect from 2006. The nose has a touch of earthiness, of baked Emmenthal with a hint of white field mushroom. The palate also is evolved, showing much concentration, the mature flavours evoking duxelles. A candied lemon note highlights the earthiness and a lovely phenolic edge brings out the essential saltiness and rich umami notions of the long, intense finish.
This Blanc de Blancs is the ultimate in the style of this producer, which is known as a Chardonnay house. The relatively high dosage does not detract from the mineral texture, the citrus and green-apple flavors and the lively aftertaste of this wine. Drink now. (Roger Voss)
There’s a strong, savory edge here with mellow, grilled cashews, as well as honey and white-nougat aromas. The palate has quite a rich and densely fruited feel with cashew, savory notes at the finish and a very savory feel overall. Drink now.
The 2006 Brut Blanc de Blancs Belle Epoque unfurls in the glass with aromas of warm biscuits, nougat, confit lemons and dried white flowers. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, broad and charming, with a delicately textural attack, a bright but open-knit core, pinpoint bubbles and a rounded, giving finish. Expect more biscuity complexity to emerge with bottle age. (William Kelley)
