FR Laurent-Perrier La Cuvée Brut Champagne 1812
Laurent Perrier is recognised to be one of the leading Champagne houses and has a long and interesting history. The house was founded in 1812 when it took its name and was later aquired in 1939 by Marie Louse de Nonancourt and her two sons who operated a resistance movement, one son Bernard redefined the buisness after the war. Their success is derived from following long established traditions and respect for nature. The company remains independent and family owned.
VARIETALS: Chardonnay (55%) Pinot Noir (30%) Pinot Meunier (15%)
ALC: 12%
TASTING NOTES:
Laurent Perrier `La Cuvee` is made entirely from the first, more gentle press for the purity of flavours. The wine is aged in their cellars for a minimum of four years, this is an ideal ageing period to create delicate and complex Champagne. A perfumed nose with hints of citrus and white fruits. Fresh and easy on the palate, with a creamy mousse and notes of honeysuckle, ripe peach, citrus and a slight toasty note on the finish. Its balance and freshness are enhanced by a light dosage.
PAIRING:
A perfect aperitif. The excellent balance, freshness and delicacy of this wine will go well with the most refined lighter seafood or fish dishes such as scallops.
