Laurent Perrier
About Laurent Perrier
With a storied history dating back to 1812, Laurent-Perrier is, without doubt, one of the great names in Champagne famed for its prestige cuvée, the only one of its kind across all Grandes Marques.
Collectors will no doubt be familiar with the mighty Krug Édition series, blending wines across years to create an NV with the quality of a vintage Champagne and infinite complexity. Grand Siècle is an extension of this notion, honed and perfect by the talented vignerons at Laurent-Perrier and elevated to the status of prestige cuvée.

Vinous (96)Tasted from magnum, the 2004 Grande Cuvée Rosé Alexandra, Laurent-Perrier’s flagship Rosé is a blend of 80% Pinot Noir (on the skins) and 20% Chardonnay vinified together that has only been bottled seven times since 1982. From the very first taste, the 2004 is utterly spectacular. Rich, ample and vertical in feel, the 2004 is dazzling. Dried rose petal, star anise, tobacco, dried flowers, red berry fruit and earthy notes all grace this utterly exquisite Champagne. As good as the 2004 is today – and it is fabulous – it will be even better in another few years’ time. The 2004 has been nothing short of magnificent on both occasions I have tasted it so far. |

James Suckling (99)Incredible aromas of apple skin, pie crust, praline and flowers. So young in the nose. Full-bodied with super-fine tannins. It’s tight and refined, yet structured and intense. Really long and beautiful. Still shy. Wonderful finish. 12 years on its lees before disgorging. Three vintages in the blend – 2008 (65%), 2007 (25%) and 2006 (10%). 60% chardonnay and 40% pinot noir. It’s the highest percentage of chardonnay ever. |
