Joseph Perrier: two new vintage wines for the prestigious Champagne House

Exactly one century after the production of the first vintage, the Champagne House Joseph Perrier is launching two new, highly prized vintage cuvées, a Rosé and a Blanc de Blancs.

The first vintage available will be 2002, an exceptional vintage that produced very fruity champagnes with intense and persistent aromatic notes and a very strong personality.

Great attention has been paid to the packaging, and the two new labels will be presented in a truly unique bottle, reminiscent of those used during the Victorian era. Jean-Claude Fourmon, owner of Joseph Perrier, took his cue from a bottle of the Maison dating back to the 1860s, labelled 'Ay Mousseux' - at that time, in fact, the term Champagne was not used on a regular basis.

The bottle has an absolutely exclusive style and two distinguishing features: it has a flat bottom and decorative bubbles around the base.

The Cuvée Blanc de Blancs Millésimée 2002 and the Cuvée Rosé Millésimée 2002 will be presented on 4 October in a tasting event to be held at the evocative walls of Banfi Castle.

The two new labels, available from Christmas 2010, join the pre-existing Cuvée Royale Brut Millesimée and the Josephine, which together with the Cuvées Royale Brut, Demi-Sec, Rosé and Blanc de Blancs complete the entire range of Champagne Joseph Perrier, distributed exclusively in Italy by Banfi Distribuzione.
