Laurent Perrier
About Laurent Perrier
With a storied history dating back to 1812, Laurent-Perrier is, without doubt, one of the great names in Champagne famed for its prestige cuvée, the only one of its kind across all Grandes Marques. Collectors will no doubt be familiar with the mighty Krug Édition series, blending wines across years to create an NV with the quality of a vintage Champagne and infinite complexity. Grand Siècle is an extension of this notion, honed and perfect by the talented vignerons at Laurent-Perrier and elevated to the status of prestige cuvée.

(6x75cl) 2012James Suckling (99)
Fascinating. Bronze with a green hue on the edges, showing dried oranges, blond tobacco, menthol, patisserie, dried strawberries and pie crust. Smoky and complex yet subtle. Medium-bodied with fine bubbles and lots of flavor but tight and focused, giving it positive energy, tension and great length. Lightly bitter grapefruit at the end. Some candied fruit. Co-fermented 80% pinot noir and 20% chardonnay. Aged about 10 years on the lees. Dosage 7 g/L. Drink or hold.Inc. TAX€2,308.82 -

Falstaff (96)
A creamy nose promises a smooth opening, the scent of sweet-salt, hazelnutty crumble crust is mouth-watering. The palate is taut but tiny bubbles carry bright lemon zestiness to the tastebuds. It is this lemony serenity and clean-cut 2008 character that remains centre-stage throughout, with subtle autolysis in the background. Very elegant and lasting.Inc. TAX€645.62 -

(6x75cl) 2015James Suckling (95)
This is in a new bottle, like the stout ones used for the rosé and blanc de blancs. This is very structured with a density and richness with hints of strawberry to the apple character. Bubbles turn fine textured at the end. Delicious flavors of biscuits and dried apple in the finish. Special character to this because of the very ripe vintage. Disgorged in November 2021. This is half chardonnay and half pinot noir. This can age well due to the phenolics. Drink or hold.Inc. TAX€535.22 -
Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (90)
Fairly pale color. Complex, soil-inflected, smoky nose combines pineapple, peach, apricot, rose petal, cinnamon and mace; reminded me of Condrieu. Fresh and ripe in the mouth, with impressively intense flavors of fruits and spices. Finishes strong and spicy, with a late note of pink peppercorn.Inc. TAX€242.42 -

James Suckling (99)
Incredible aromas of apple skin, pie crust, praline and flowers. So young in the nose. Full-bodied with super-fine tannins. It’s tight and refined, yet structured and intense. Really long and beautiful. Still shy. Wonderful finish. 12 years on its lees before disgorging. Three vintages in the blend – 2008 (65%), 2007 (25%) and 2006 (10%). 60% chardonnay and 40% pinot noir. It’s the highest percentage of chardonnay ever.Inc. TAX€960.02 -
James Suckling (99)
Dried lemons, salted almonds, oyster shells, croissants, iodine, baked apples, spices and some ginger notes. White pepper, too. Vibrant and fresh, with a distinct saline edge. I like the subtle spice character. So much subtle power and tension. 58% chardonnay and 42% pinot noir, from 2006, 2004 and 2002. 14 years on the lees, three or four more than the normal bottle release. Only available in magnum. Drink or hold.Inc. TAX€366.41 -

Deep gold. Woo hoo! Really explosive cordite. Tight and fresh but with many nuances and extremely long. Creamy Chardonnay and some savoury notes. Lovely tight filigree texture. Masses of acidity – but lots of fruit too before a dry finish. Sort of like a really fine mature white burgundy but much fresher and more like a ballerina!Inc. TAX€2,077.45 -

(100% saignée Pinot Noir): Vivid orange-pink. An expressive, spice-accented bouquet evokes fresh raspberry, orange pith, white flowers and ginger, with a hint of rhubarb adding an earthy flourish. Sappy and broad in the mouth, offering intense red fruit and bitter citrus flavors underscored by chalky mineral and white pepper notes. Rich yet lively rosé with excellent closing thrust and floral persistence.Inc. TAX€808.88 -
