Chardonnay 50% (which is particulary high proportion, double the average in Champagne), Pinot Noir 35%, Pinot Meunier 15%.
The blend is made of wines from more than 55 individual crus or villages with an average cru rating of 94% on the échelle des crus and up to 20% of reserve wines are also used, thus ensuring perfect consistency in the style.
Laurent-Perrier Brut's style is defined by its very high proportion of Chardonnay which provides a natural purity, freshness and elegance. These essential characteristics expressed in all our champagnes, are good introduction to the spirit of Laurent-Perrier.
ASPECT: Pale gold in colour with a steady flow of fine and persistent bubbles.
AROMA: Delicate yet complex, fresh and well-balanced with hints of citrus and white fruits.
TASTE: Well defined, subtly rounded with expressive flavours. The fruit progressively emerges to reveal a finely balanced champagne displaying great length on the finish.
The combination of freshness and purity of the Laurent-Perrier Brut has been a major factor in the succes of champagne as an aperitif. Its citrus and white fruit notes-such as vine peach- and its remarkable balance supported by subtle bubbles make it the perfect companion for the finer moments in life. A true vin de plaisir.
