The birth of Perrier-Jouët is linked to a marriage in 1811, when Pierre, a supplier of cork, married Jouët, the daughter of an apple brandy producer, and the couple founded a Champagne house after their marriage. In 1861, Perrier-Jouët was granted Royal Warrant by Queen Victoria of England, and Leopold I of Belgium, Napoleon III of France, Empress Catherine II of Russia and the Swedish royal family were also fans of Perrier-Jouët. Today, Perrier-Jouët belongs to Pernod Ricard, which is the most well-known French champagne brand in the Chinese market.
 
Perrier-Jouët was a pioneer in the world of Champagne, not only setting the precedent for marking the year of the grape harvest on the bottle, but also successfully producing dry champagne in 1846, becoming the first wine merchant in France to launch a dry champagne. In addition, Perrier-Jouët's cellars still hold the oldest surviving vintage, Perrier-Jouët 1825.
 
Perrier-Jouët's product matrix includes three main products: Grand Cru Dry Champagne, Rosé Champagne and Belle Epoque, of which Grand Cru Dry Champagne and Rosé Champagne are non-vintage champagnes, and Belle Epoque is vintage champagne.
 
Grand Brut, the first dry champagne produced by Perrier-Jouët in 1846, is made with a grape mix of 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Pinot Meunier and 20% Chardonnay, of which 12-20% is aged wine, blended with the best grapes from up to 50 villages, and after the blend is completed, it is transferred to the chalk cellar of the Château, where it can be aged for three years before it can be marketed. Perrier-Jouët Premium Dry Champagne has an average score of 89 on Wine Searcher, and the price on domestic e-commerce platforms is in the early 300 yuan, which is a good value for money, making it an entry-level champagne worth buying.
 
In 1902, Art Nouveau master Emile Gallé created a set of illustrations dedicated to Perrier-Jouët, which perfectly captured the elegance and sophistication of Perrier-Jouët, so that when the Belle Epoque collection was born, the House decided to make this anemone motif appear on every decanter and become the symbol of Perrier-Jouët's top products. Belle Epoque champagnes are only made in the best years, not every year, and are aged for at least 6 years after blending. The Belle Epoque champagne has a mediocre rating among veteran drinkers, with a high price and not outstanding cost performance, but it has a pleasing appearance and is especially suitable for ladies to gift.
