Made with a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes, this 2014 vintage Belle Epoque Rosé has a delicate floral character. You’ll find aromas of spring flowers, along with ripe peach, citrus zest, and red berries on the nose. The palate offers a balance of crunchy fruits, finishing with a mineral note. Try pairing this Champagne with white fish, mild cheeses, or citrus desserts.

The Story

Since early years, the production of Belle Epoque has grown year after year. Belle Epoque Rosé was created in 1976. The excellent vintage of Chardonnay in 1993 inspired Hervé Deschamps, cellar master at Perrier-Jouët, to produce a small quantity of Blanc de Blancs:

-“The production is very small-scale – only one per cent of all Belle Epoque champagnes. The grapes are grown almost exclusively in one of our top vineyards in Cramant. Rosé make...

Wine Information

"This wine’s combination of richness and delicacy reminds me of the texture of a ranunculus – preferably a beautiful pale pink one, similar in colour to Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque Rosé."

Vuosikerta 2014

This year was all about alternating weather patterns. A particularly wet winter gave way to a warm and dry spring. May saw some rain, and even though late June-brought about a minor heatwave, the remainder of the summer was moist and murky. Disease pressure was lifted but once again fine, hot September weather was able to save and concentrate the crop. A large crop (11,553 kg/ha) was picked from September 8th onwards. The year's biggest proble...

Viiniarvio

Viiniä ei ole maistettu vielä riittävän monta kertaa jotta siitä voitaisiin muodostaa sanallinen arvio

Kirjoita arviosi

A delicate, luminous coral-pink with a hint of copper, accented by fine, lively bubbles that dance elegantly in the glass.


The bouquet is a floral and fruity masterpiece. Aromas of wild strawberries, red currants, and white peaches blend harmoniously with subtle notes of rose petals, orange blossom, and a touch of creamy marzipan.


On the palate, this rosé champagne is refined and graceful, with a silky texture and vibrant freshness. Juicy red berry flavors mingle with candied citrus and a hint of apricot, while a whisper of minerality adds depth. The finish is long and elegant, leaving a trail of floral and fruity delicacy.


The Belle Epoque Rosé 2014 is a romantic and enchanting champagne, capturing the essence of finesse and elegance. Perfect for celebration or quiet indulgence, it is delightful now but promises further complexity with age.

Score: 95+/100

Drink Window: Now–2035+

Sisäpiiritietoa

All of the above-mentioned champagnes were made by Perrier-Jouët’s legendary chef de cave, Hervé Deschamps, even though he is now retired, having been succeeded by the house’s first female chef de cave, Séverine Frerson. Frerson joined Perrier-Jouët in 2018 and took the reins in October 2020. Deschamps was just Perrier-Jouët’s seventh chef de cave, extraordinary when one considers that the house commenced operations in 1811.

I have discussed the amazing history of the unique bottles before. and suffice to say that they are perhaps the most instantly identifiable wine bottles on the planet. A brief recap: in 1902, Perrier-Jouët’s third president, Henri Galice, commissioned famous art nouveau artist Emile Gallé to design a new bottle to reflect spirit of the era. He painted those beautiful Japanese anemones on four custom-made magnums, but the powers that be considered the process too expensive to mass produce.

They were stored away and forgotten until Deschamps’ predecessor, André Baveret, came across them in 1964. The first Belle Époque was released in 1969 as part of the celebrations of American jazz legend Duke Ellington’s seventieth birthday at a party in Paris. Five hundred specially numbered magnums (who knows where any of them are today) went to special customers and the rest were sold at Maxim’s and Fauchon in Paris.

The Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque Rosé constitutes just eight percent, give or take depending on vintages, of the full production of Belle Époque champagnes (the Blanc de Blancs is just one percent). Perrier-Jouët also offers a second prestige Rosé, Blason Rosé, which is more Pinot dominant.

I have also discussed Perrier-Jouët’s wonderful Belle Époque wines here before, but it is worth recapping that they are made from a careful selection of grapes, mostly Grand Cru with some Premier Cru where appropriate.

In general terms, Chardonnay (Perrier-Jouët is seen as a Chardonnay house) consisting of around 50 percent from the best of the Côte des Blancs – Grand Cru villages of Cramant, Avize and Chouilly – with around 45 percent Pinot Noir from the Grand Cru villages of Mailly, Ay and Verzy and around five percent Meunier from Dizy.

Other villages such as Rilly and Le Mesnil can be included if the chef de cave believes that it suits the style and the vintage. The house owns 65 hectares of vineyards including 55 hectares of Grand Cru, which supply around one-third of its needs – high for this part of the world. First-press juice only and a lengthy period on lees. The aim is for champagnes of freshness, finesse, elegance, and complexity.

Frerson has described the Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque Rosé as “a fascinating cuvée – subtle and delicate, yet also warm and embracing, as if it were wrapping you in silk . . . I like to compare Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque Rosé to a pale pink ranunculus. I’m thinking not only of the flower’s pastel hue, but also of its multilayered, ruffled petals, which suggest this cuvée’s surprising combination of richness and delicacy.”

She sees a perfect match for it being figs, lobster, or red lentils (presumably not all together). Also “salmon or tuna cooked on one side only, salmon with cranberry sauce, pigeon, or thinly sliced duck breast.”

The house suggests that its Belle Époque Rosé was first made in 1978, although the Tastingbook.com site, an extremely useful source, has a series of notes for the 1976 vintage. Richard Juhlin, a highly respected champagne authority, refers to the 1976 as the first vintage of the Rosé.

The latest release, the 2013, has 11 percent Pinot Noir from Aÿ, Mailly, Verzy, and Sillery. Skin maceration was followed by blending with the Chardonnay from Cramant, Avize, and Le Mesnil.
