Brand details
| Laurent-Perrier is a family-owned house that has always had a pioneering and innovating role in Champagne, with a distinctive style marked by aromatic complexity and exceptional fullness and length. This style is achieved by focussing on the 3 main wine-making principles of the House. First, the assemblage, not the vintage; Laurent-Perrier is the only house whose most prestigious cuvée, Grand Siècle, is not vintage but numbered. Second, the maceration technique, which offers to our rosé champagnes unequalled aromas, revealing all the richness of the best Crus of Pinot Noir. Finally, zero dosage; Laurent-Perrier has been a pioneer in the sans dosage category since 1981, revealing the true minerality of the Champagne region’s terroir. |

History
Champagne Laurent-Perrier was founded in 1812 but the story is really one of modern renaissance. In 1939 the House was sold to the de Nonancourt family & Madame de Nonancourt passed control of the House to her son Bernard in 1948. Bernard had a modern vision of a champagne style that could be enjoyed any time with a cleaner palate. He brought innovation & a pioneering spirit to the House, so the Laurent-Perrier style of elegance & freshness was born. His legacy lives on today through his daughters.

Regional information
Champagne terroir covers a roughly 34,000 ha of vineyards, each one bringing together a combination of climate, soil & terrain. The production zone AOC was defined & delimited by a law passed in 1927. The terroir has two major features: northerly latitude & dual climate. The subsoil is mainly limestone with the addition of chalk & marl. This subsoil has good drainage & also adds that mineral taste to certain Champagnes. The moderately steep terrain offers perfect exposure to sunlight with added drainage.
Tasting notes
Eye - A white gold colour with a fine and persistent effervescence. Nose - A nose offering notes of lemon, white peach and fruits in syrup followed by aromas of toasted bread and toasted almonds. Palate - Fresh at first which gives way to a lively, elegant and complex palate with aromas of white fruits and citrus zest. Héritage offers a perfect balance between freshness, elegance and maturity with notes of floral honey.
