The production of the Perrier-Jouët Grand Brut magnum

The Grand Brut magnum is a blend of 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Pinot Meunier and 20% Chardonnay. The grapes, sourced from fifty carefully selected crus, express all the richness of the Champagne terroirs. Chardonnays from villages such as Chouilly and Cramant bring freshness and elegance, while Pinot Noirs from Verzy and Ambonnay provide structure and intensity. Meuniers from the Marne Valley add a fruity and round touch.

Under the direction of Cellar Master Séverine Frerson, up to 15% of reserve wines are added to the blend to give it beautiful aromatic depth. Aged for at least three years in Perrier-Jouët's historic cellars, the Grand Brut magnum reveals exceptional maturity and sparkling freshness thanks to a dosage of 8 to 10 g/L.

A history of innovation

In 1846, Perrier-Jouët revolutionized the world of champagne by launching the first brut in history, with a significantly reduced sugar dosage. This spirit of innovation is embodied today in the Grand Brut magnum, a symbol of boldness and refinement.
