Current Vintage: Non-vintage
Edition No. 25 (blend of 2006-2007-2008 vintages)
Grapes: Chardonnay 60%, Pinot Noir 40%
Vintage in Champagne is usually synonymous with excellence for Prestige Cuvées. Contrarily, Laurent-Perrier has always been convinced that only the art of assemblage can offer what nature can never provide: the perfect year. The expression of the perfect year is that of a great Champagne wine that over time has developed a depth, intensity and aromatic complexity, yet maintains its freshness and acidity.
The blend is led by the exceptional 2008 vintage at 65%, complemented by 25% 2007 and 10% 2006. Chardonnay comes from Avize, Cramant, Oger, and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, while the Pinot Noir is drawn from five Grand Cru villages including Ambonnay and Bouzy. Twelve years of aging on the lees brings remarkable depth, with a dosage of just 7g/L keeping the finished wine precise and energetic.
Layered and beautifully composed, it moves from fresh citrus and white fruit into toasted almond, brioche, and subtle savory notes. There’s richness and maturity here, but also a wonderful line of freshness running through the wine and a long, finely structured finish. A serious Champagne for lobster, turbot, truffles, or simply an occasion worthy of opening one of Laurent-Perrier’s greatest bottles.
