Laurent-Perrier Brut L-P 375ml Champagne NV

Laurent-Perrier Brut L-P is the standard-bearer for the house style of Laurent-Perrier. Crisp, fresh, and elegant, Brut L-P reflects the fundamental essence of our Champagnes.

Whilst vintage Champagne shows the character of a specific harvest, non-vintage Brut personifies the style of a particular House. Freshness, elegance, and balance, all of which are typical of Laurent-Perrier's wines, are found together in Brut L-P, year after year.

Chardonnay, is the dominant grape variety in Brut L-P. Its proportion is unusually high for a non-vintage Champagne blend, being double the average. Wines from more than 55 crus make up the blend (10% to 20% of which consists of reserve wines, though this can be higher in some years). Because of its balance and natural freshness, Brut L-P only receives a light dosage. Its ideal aging period is about three years.

The color is a pale golden hue, with fine and persistent bubbles. The nose is fresh and delicate, showing good complexity with hints of citrus and white fruit. Brut L-P's light style has led the way to making Champagne the ideal aperitif drink. Its perfect balance, crispness of flavors and finesse also make it the ideal companion for fish, poultry and white meat.

Pale gold with a delicate and fine bead.

Subtle spice and hints of citrus. Warm toasty notes balance the freshness of fruit.

Medium bodied and very easy on the palate. Perfectly balanced: a soft mouthfeel belies the strong structure of the wine. Finishes clean yet delicately lingers.

Serve between 45°F and 50°F.

A perfect aperitif Brut L-P can easily be enjoyed on its own. It will also stand up to a variety of fish dishes such a halibut or turbot, and matches wonderfully with shrimp and scallops. It can also be paired with a wide variety of light hors d'oeuvres.

Chardonnay (45%), Pinot Noir (40%), Pinot Meunier (15%).

Blended from over 200 base wines from more than 50 crus, the average vineyard rating on the quality scale is an impressive 94%. Between 10% and 20% of the blend is comprised of reserve wines, which allows our winemaker, Michel Fauconnet, to ensure stylistic consistency year after year.
