    Overview

    Laurent-Perrier Grand Siècle Iteration N° 25 - Lumière


    The Idea of Grand Siècle is based on a single observation: nature will never provide the perfect oenological year but thanks to the art of assemblage, Laurent-Perrier can in fact create it. 

    Grand Siècle applies the following four rules:
    Blending of a section of 3 exceptional years
    Blending of a section of 11 of the 17 existing Grand Crus in Champagne
    A blend made from a base year ( the youngest ) and 2 additional years.
    A blend with a majority of chardonnay supplemented by Pinot Noir and benefiting from more than 10 years of aging in the cellars.

    Assemblage
    2008 / 2007 / 2006

    Tasting Notes:
    An intense nose of fresh citrus fruits followed by subtle aromas of grilled almonds and brioche.

    The wine has a fresh and toasted attack. The finish is persistent with notes of citrus fruit. Grand Siècle iteration Nº25 has exceptional aromatic depth.

    Best served between 10° and 12°C.
