Laurent Perrier Blanc De Blancs Champagne

Country: France Region: Champagne

Varietal: Chardonnay 100%

Vintage: NV Colour: White Style: Sparkling

Producer: Laurent Perrier

Description:

Today, Laurent-Perrier stands among Champagne's largest producers and is best known for its iconic Cuvée Rosé — the most recognised rosé champagne in the world. The House's distinctive style is defined by freshness, purity, and precision, with a light reductive twist and elegant character its wines age with exceptional grace.

In May 2018, Laurent-Perrier announced the release of a brand new champagne: Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature NV. Being a Chardonnay-dominant house, it was only a matter of time before Laurent-Perrier launched an all-Chardonnay cuvée. Notably, the champagne is a Brut Nature (zero dosage was added post-disgorgement), making it the only Grande Marque Blanc de Blancs with no dosage.

Tasting Note:

Has initial Chardonnay aromatics, some small hints of evolution on the nose and lots of ripe apples and an underlying layer of chalkiness. The palate has the freshness, the chalk and the ripe apples show again with hints of mango, pineapple with nice layers of spice. Seems very balanced, not crying out for attention.
