The choice of a high percentage of Chardonnay is the core of Laurent-Perrier’s style and personality. Purity, freshness and elegance are the characteristics sought after for this wine which introduces the spirit of the Champagne House.
To the eye
A pale gold colour. Very fine bubbles feed a very persistent foam.
On the nose
Delicate nose with aromas of fresh citrus and white flowers. The complexity of the wine is expressed on successive notes such as vine peach and white fruit.
In the mouth
A perfect balance between freshness and finesse with fruity flavours very present on the finish.
Food & champagne pairings
This fresh and pure wine is perfect for the aperitif. Its citrus and white fruit notes, and its remarkable balance supported by a subtle effervescence, make it an ideal companion for poultry and the finest fish.
Ideal operating temperature
Serve between 8 and 10 °C.
Potential of keeping
Like all wines, champagne can be kept for varying lengths of time, depending on the type. Under optimal storage conditions, champagne can be kept for 1 to 2 years for Brut cuvées, and up to 4/5 years or even longer for vintage and prestige champagnes. Whatever happens, rest assured that you'll never be able to open your champagne too early, as the Champagne Houses only release their cuvées when they have reached perfect ripeness and are ready for immediate consumption.
Chardonnay from 50 to 55 % – Pinot Noir from 30 to 35 % – Meunier from 15 to 20 %. Reserve wines of 20 to 30% to ensure a perfect consistency of style. In the composition of the cuvée, more than 100 crus selected by Laurent-Perrier are blended. For blending, only the musts of the cuvée are used, so only 80% of the grape juice extracted from pressing.
