Laurent-Perrier
Established in 1812 Champagne Laurent-Perrier has a long tradition of innovation in Champagne and can be credited with many of the ideas that have defined Champagne production since the mid 20th century. Laurent-Perrier was among the first to introduce stainless steel fermentation tanks to the region in the 1950s resurrected the non-dosage Champagne category with the introduction of Ultra Brut in 1981 and sparked the revival of non-vintage rosé Champagne in 1968 despite the opinion of other producers that non-vintage rosés were not to be taken seriously. Today Laurent Perrier's iconic Cuvée Rosé remains the benchmark for non-vintage rosé champagne. Laurent-Perrier has become one of the international leaders in Champagne based entirely on the quality of the wines and core values as a company. Laurent-Perrier is still a family-controlled business and makes nothing other than champagne. The house prides itself on quality and consistency attributable to having only 3 chefs de caves since 1949. Laurent-Perrier's house style emphasizes freshness elegance and finesse across its entire range of champagnes. None of the wines are aged in oak and Laurent-Perrier makes fewer single-vintage wines than many other houses. The art of blending - not just of grapes but of years as well - is fundamental to champagne. At Laurent-Perrier even our prestige cuvée Grand Siècle is never a single vintage wine but always a blend of three complementary vintage years essentially creating the perfect year.
Description
A bright straw colour. Laurent-Perrier Brut is discretion itself with a pale gold colour that highlights its delicate, persistent bead. A delicate nose, and balanced freshness. Floral notes, like the reminiscence of a perfume floating in air, come together in a delicious harmony. This naturally elegant ‘aesthete’ reveals itself little by little, combining notes of citrus and stone fruit with a pure creaminess. Mellowness, finesse and freshness combine to achieve a remarkable flavour, in a succession of constantly shifting taste sensations and a long, satisfying finish.
Food Pairing
Its perfect balance, crispness of flavors and finesse also make it the ideal companion for fish, poultry and white meat.
