Laurent Perrier Grand Siecle Brut Champagne NV 75 cl

Product Information

The name chosen by Bernard de Nonancourt, upon the advice of Général de Gaulle, for Champagne Laurent-Perrier’s prestige cuvee, launched in 1959. Why three vintages, and not two or four or even more? “Because he (my grandfather) tried different things and three was the best result he created,” says Pereyre. It should be notes that the final blend is not equal parts of each vintage; rather the percentage totals are based on how the cellar master decides will make the finest blend. For Iteration #25, the cuvée is 60% from the 2008 vintage, and 20% each from 2007 and 2006.

Just a hint of reductive charm and there is real intensity to the fruit; rich & ripe lemon sherbet, ripe pear, yellow plum and a twist of dried grass. You really see the Chardonnay dominance, 60% and the red fruits are currently quite subdued. The palate is a mix of racy freshness from the acidity and soft texture from its long time on the lees and such lightness and delicacy to finish with a twist of salinity and dosage at 7 g/l seems perfectly integrated. Like many 2008’s this has great purity to the fruit. 65% 2008, 25% 2007 & 10% 2006” Die Farbe ist dicht, mit einem goldenen Schimmer, der von zarten, sehr feinen Bläschen belebt wird.After a mild spring and a hot, dry summer, which was particularly beneficial for the quality of the grapes, the harvest took place at the beginning of September in the rain, revealing well-structured wines with lively, fresh Chardonnays and full-bodied Pinot Noirs.

The lees ageing has really filled the mid-palate, giving an almost velvety texture to the champagne.
