Tasting notes
In the glass, the Belle Epoque 2012 by the Perrier Jouët maison has a straw yellow color crossed by greenish reflections and a very fine perlage . The nose has refined and elegant floral scents with notes of hawthorn and apple . The taste is powerful , mineral and with a very long persistence . Ideal to uncork on special occasions, perhaps in combination with shellfish or second courses of white meat or fish.
Processing
The Belle Epoque carries out the malolactic fermentation , and after disgorging a dosage of about 9 g / l of sugar is added. Finally, the champagne ages for about six years on the lees , in order to achieve maximum complexity and harmony.The cellar
