Description

The precision and balance of an exceptional champagne by Laurent-Perrier

The producer

Founded in 1812, the Laurent-Perrier Champagne House reached its golden age in 1948, thanks to Bernard de Nonancourt's dynamism. Under the leadership of this visionary businessman, the house stood out by producing vintages that reflected its values of excellence and innovation.

Since its very beginnings, the house has built its identity around Chardonnay. Through the freshness and finesse that it brings to the blend, this grape variety has become the signature style of this Champagne reference.

Laurent-Perrier's avant-garde approach is reflected in Grand Siècle and its multi-vintage blends, its Ultra Brut with a "zero dosage" style and also its Cuvee Rose, the first rose champagne in this category. These original "breakthrough" cuvées, each creation being subject to an event, mark a new page in the history of Laurent Perrier and its quest for excellence, for which it is internationally renowned.

The quintessence of Bernard de Nonancourt’s cherished values are in the Laurent-Perrier cuvées, unanimously recognized by connoisseurs.

The wine

Grand Siècle by Laurent-Perrier is a prestige champagne that is unlike any other and offers a unique concept. It is the only prestige cuvée in Champagne that is based on the blend and not on the vintage. Laurent-Perrier elevates the blending to the next level and believes that it is possible to recreate the perfect oenological year, the one that would bring together the perfect balance between its different organoleptic components. 24 iterations of Grand Siècle have been created since its launch in 1959. Grand Siècle N°17 "Les Réserves" was revealed on the occasion of the House's Bicentenary in 2012.

The blend

Grand Siècle Itération N°17 "Les Réserves" comprises a blend of a selection of 1995, 1993 and 1990 vintages made by Laurent-Perrier from 10 of the only 17 Grands Crus in Champagne and chosen for their complementarity. This wine is made up of Chardonnay (55%) completed by Pinot Noir (45%) and benefits from an extended ageing in cellars of 20 years.
