Champagne : Gold illustrated bottles

 Gold illustrated bottles appear to be a continuing trend in limited edition Champagne. Both Perrier Jouët and Piper Heidsieck currently have beautifully illustrated champagne bottles for their rare vintages.

 Piper Heidsieck's 'Rare' is very limited and made in tiny quantities compared to some of the big house vintages. The 2002 vintage is only the eighth vintage to be released in the past 30 years.
 Housed in a beautiful baroque inspired, gold grape vine tiara adorned bottle (created by Parisian jeweller Arthus Bertrand) this is a Champagne that certainly lives up to it's name.

 Perrier Jouët's 'Belle Époque Florale Edition' is the first ever limited edition bottle of Perrier Jouët's Belle Époque Cuvee. Emille Gallé's infamous 1902 original bottle is reinterpreted for the first time by Japanese floral artist Makota Azuma featuring stunning gold coloured florals.
