Sale $249.99 Laurent Perrier Grand Siecle Gift Box No. 26 750ml
Description: | 100 points James Suckling Grand Siecle N.26 was named Wine of the Year in November 2023 and got the perfect score of 100/100 by James Suckling. It also made #6 on the Top 100 Cellar Selections of 2023 by The Wine Enthusiast. Vintage in Champagne is usually synonymous with excellence for Prestige CuvÊes. 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. To create such a wine, Laurent-Perrier will rely on the characteristics of the great vintage years of Champagne: freshness, structure and finesse. Grand Siècle's assemblage is based on 3 principles that have now become immutable. A blend of 3 exceptional years, complementary in character. A blend with a majority of Chardonnay supplemented by Pinot Noir and selected among 11 of the 17 existing Grands Crus in Champagne. A blend benefiting from more than 10 years of ageing in the Cellars. 2012 (65%), 2008 (25%), 2007 (10%) ⢠Grapes varieties: Chardonnay 58%, Pinot Noir 42% ⢠Crus: an assemblage from a selection of 8 of the 17 Grands Crus.
