Production Notes
Perrier Jouet Blanc De Blancs follows a meticulous production process that impeccably echoes the house’s commitment towards exceptional quality.
Utilizing 100% Chardonnay, primarily sourced from Grand Cru vineyards, each grape is delicately handpicked to maintain their pristine condition. Laborious vinification in stainless steel preserves the varietal character, followed by a secondary fermentation in the bottle as per the traditional Champagne method. It matures for at least three years in the house’s crayeres (chalk cellars), ensuring a perfect development of flavors and bubbles. After careful riddling and disgorging, the Champagne is finally ready to be savored and celebrated.
