Series Top Pick this month belongs to Joseph Perrier\u2019s Cuv\u00e9e Royale Brut Champagne.\u00a0 Joseph Perrier (not to be confused with the more commercial brand Perrier Jouet), crafts traditional Brut Champagne and ages it to perfection.\u00a0 While other Champagne houses have cut back on the ageing of their Brut Champagnes and have resorted to homogenizing their blends, Joseph Perrier has stayed the course.\u00a0 The result is a creamy, sensuous, and eminently drinkable Brut Champagne that embodies both elegance and a host of full, exquisite flavors.\u00a0 And as the name implies, Cuv\u00e9e Royale is indeed Champagne fit for kings and queens.\u00a0 It makes an ideal aperitif but also pairs so well with lobster, crab, salmon, and all kinds of fish and hors d\u2019oeuvres that I have to keep more than a few bottles on hand, lest our glasses run dry.\u00a0 So let\u2019s celebrate the day with a glass of Joseph Perrier Cuv\u00e9e Royale Brut Champagne and enjoy!<\/p>\n<p><i>Salut\u00e9!<\/i><br \/>\nDon<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Collector Series Top Pick this month belongs to Joseph Perrier\u2019s Cuv\u00e9e Royale Brut
