Established in 1811, as one of the first houses of champagne, Perrier-Jouet debuts a suite collaboration with paper artist Jo Lynn Alcorn.
Since it’s inception, Perrier-Jouet has treated the process of making champagne as an art form, and this flowery champagne campaign is no different.
Through the art of finely hand cut paper, Jo Lynn Alcorn highlights the essence that corresponds with champagne maker’s five, distinct cuvees, and the quality and flavor notes found in each.

If you’re drinking bubbly in Australia that was bottled before September 1, there’s no telling where it actually came from.
But as of Thursday, any bubbly produced in that country can no longer label itself as champagne but will have to be called sparkling wine.
It’s part of a trade agreement that was signed between Australia and the European Union, meant to protect winegrowers around the world and enforce labeling laws, an initiative of the Comité Interprofessionel du Vin de Champagne, or CIVC in France.
