Laurent-Perrier Brut Vintage 2012 Champagne

The vintage brut is the choice of an exceptional year from which only a selection of the chardonnay and pinot noir grands crus will enter a future iteration of Grand Siecle. It is a rare and outstanding wine that expresses the character of the year in the Laurent-Perrier style.

• An equal blend of chardonnay and pinot noir
• White gold in colour with a fine sparkle
• The nose displays both mineral and chalky notes giving way to elegant grapefruit and white fruit aromas
• On the palate it is lively, the wine has depth with a persistent freshness and notes of bitter orange and lemon on the finish

Laurent-Perrier brut vintage 2012 champagne pairs perfectly with shellfish, poultry, and veal fillet.

2012 was characterised by a cold but not harsh winter and a dull and rainy spring. Harvest started mid-September in dry and cold conditions, perfect weather for healthy grapes which provided attractive chardonnays and pinots noirs. These high quality grapes revealed an outstanding aromatic richness that boded well for an exceptional vintage.
