An unusual Champagne blend, with 50 to 55% Chardonnay giving this a distinct flavour.
Pale gold in colour. Fine bubbles feed a persistent mousse. The nose is delicate with hints of fresh citrus and white flowers, the palate expressive and loaded with notes of peach and white fruits. Striking a good balance between freshness and richness, fruit flavours linger afterward.
From the Winery
This wine comes from the purest grape juice and it alone allows Laurent-Perrier to craft La Cuvée, a champagne wine of great finesse and a beautiful freshness obtained after a long ageing process in our cellars.
Laurent-Perrier’s style and personality are de ned by its very high proportion of Chardonnay. Purity, freshness and elegance - essential characteristics, expressed in this champagne - are a good introduction to the spirit of the House.
For blending, only the musts of the grape are used, so only 80 % of the grape juice extracted from pressing.
Grape varietals: Chardonnay from 50 to 55 % Pinot Noir from 30 to 35 % Meunier from 15% to 20% Plus Reserve wines up to 20-30% to ensure perfect consistency
The blend of La Cuvée is made from more than 100 crus selected by Laurent-Perrier. La Cuvée bene ts from ideal ageing in the cellar. Its balance and freshness are enhanced by a light dosage.
This fresh and pure wine is perfect for an aperitif. Its citrus and white fruit notes and its remarkable balance, supported by a subtle effervescence, make it an ideal champagne to accompany poultry and the nest shes.
