About this Item
Laurent-Perrier, one of Champagne’s leading houses, was founded in 1812. The house was ‘reborn’ in 1948 when Bernard de Nonancourt was appointed Chairman and Chief Executive of Laurent-Perrier. The signature house style was created by Bernard which can be described as fresh, light and elegant, and this is done by using a higher percentage of Chardonnay grapes.

Critics Ratings
‘Light gold. Deep, lush aromas of apple, pear and floral honey, with a note of white pepper. Round, gentle and rich in apple and pear flavor, with subtle hints of sweet butter and honey. An impressively deep wine that finishes quite persistent, with a sappy note of honeyed apple.’ – Josh Raynolds, Vinous.com, 90/100 (2006)
