Laurent-Perrier LA CUVÉE Brut Champagne 12% Vol. 0,75l

This wine comes from the purest grape juice and it alone allows Laurent‑Perrier to craft “La Cuvée”, a champagne of great finesse and a beautiful freshness obtained after a long ageing process in our cellars.

Laurent-Perrier’s style and personality are defined by its very high proportion of Chardonnay. Purity, freshness and elegance – essential characteristics, expressed in this champagne which embodies the spirit of the House.

VINIFICATION, BLENDING AND AGEING

For blending, only the musts of the Cuvée are used, so only 80% of the grape juice is extracted from pressing.

Grape varietals:

• a majority of Chardonnay, over 50%
• Pinot Noir, between 30% and 35%
• rounded out with Meunier, between 10% and 15%
• + Reserve wines between 15% and 30%* to ensure perfect consistency in style.

Crus:

• “La Cuvée” is a blend made from over 100 Crus* selected by Laurent‑Perrier. 

“La Cuvée” benefits from an ideal ageing of around 4 years in the cellar. Its balance and freshness are enhanced by a light dosage.
