Ever since it was founded in 1811, Perrier-Jouët Champagne has been cultivating its taste for artistic creations. Faithful to this tradition, the champagne House partnered with French designer Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance to create a unique champagne tasting table: the Perrier-Jouët Flower table.
What better way to fully appreciate Perrier-Jouët Cuvées than with a champagne tasting table? Celebrating the arrival of spring, the Perrier-Jouët Flower Table echoes the distinctive shape of the anemone, icon of the Champagne House in an stylish and elegant way. The interior of the table opens out to reveal a fluid and curved champagne bowl – a real invitation for guests to gather and appreciate fully this artistic champagne tasting experience.
Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance inspiration came following a visit to Maison Belle Époque, the Perrier-Jouët hospitality house in Épernay. Turned into a unique showcase of the Belle Époque Cuvée, the House holds almost 200 original pieces from the Art Nouveau movement, whose leader included artist and Art Nouveau pioneer Émile Galle, who designed in 1902 the anemones that adorn every one of Perrier-Jouet Cuvées today. This sense of beauty explains why the respective worlds of Perrier-Jouët and Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance converge so closely: they both share the same sensitivity for organic shapes, and close approach to Nature.
Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance says: “With the Flower Table, I was able to design a piece which reflects both my personality and Perrier-Jouët. A freedom object, like Art Nouveau”.
To accompany the French Designer’s work and fully appreciate the tasting experience, Perrier-Jouët invited 3-star Michelin French Chef Anne-Sophie Pic, to come up with some culinary delicacies to sample around the Flower Table. Anne-Sophie Pic created a series of beautiful “Amuse-Bouches”, a real concentrate of sensorial emotions, in perfect harmony with Perrier-Jouët Cuvées.
By bringing these creative talents together, Perrier-Jouët has conjured up an outstanding tasting experience that touches all the senses and brings to life the aromas of each wine; from the legendary Grand Brut to the prestigious Belle Époque Cuvées. Cellar Master Hervé Deschamps concludes: “It’s fascinating to see how oenology, art and gastronomy combined together reveal the style and elegance of the Perrier-Jouët Champagnes – the experience is simply sublime”.

I set up this blog because I love Champagne… I don’t see other reasons except that I wanted to share my passion. In this blog I would like to share all of sorts of stories around Champagne (cultural, oenology, marketing and so on)
