The Wine
Laurent-Perrier is one of the most famous of the Grandes Marques Champagnes (for good reason – they make delicious fizz), and the region’s largest family owned house today. Founded originally in 1812 by Alphonse Pierlot, Laurent-Perrier was bought in 1939 by Marie-Louise Lanson de Nonancourt (of Champagne Lanson), who together with her son Bernard did much to raise its profile around the world. Despite a cold start, 2006 has proved a lovely ripe vintage, amply displayed here. Chardonnay was the star, creating complex, aromatic, well rounded wines with good ageing potential. This elegant Champagne has toasted nut and dried apricot aromas, fresh, rounded, white peach flavours and fine, persistent bubbles. A classic celebration wine.
