A blend of 54% Chardonnay and 46% Pinot Noir, the grapes come exclusively from terroirs classified as Premiers and Grands Crus.
The grapes are pressed and vinified separately, before aging for a minimum of 6 years in the company's cellars in Châlons-en-Champagne.
Each bottle passes through the hands of a dozen men passionate about exceptional champagne.
Cuvée Josephine 2008 Joseph Perrier has a golden color with glowing coppery highlights. Its bubbles are of unprecedented finesse.
At first, floral notes stand out, then after a few moments, aromas of dried fruit, fig and spices emerge.
On the palate, this cuvée offers an excellent balance between liveliness and vinosity. The Pinot Noir strongly releases fruity flavors, enriched by notes of bitter almond and a hint of vanilla. The Chardonnay contributes its pastry flavors. The finish is persistent, complex and spicy.
