Our oenologists' opinion
Powerful bouquet
The nose is clean and fragrant, characterised by buttery and vanilla notes, before opening up to reveal aromas of almond.
The attack is full-bodied, supported by a lovely richness.
The palate reveals a character of almonds and candied yellow fruits, with hints of mocha and cocoa, lending depth and complexity.
The finish is generous and structured, with a distinguished character that evokes a true dining champagne.
The finish is good, prolonging the aromatic expression with elegance and intensity.

Features
Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.
Do you know ?
Made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes from the Côte des Blancs and Pinot Noir grapes from the Montagne de Reims.

LAURENT-PERRIER
The Millésimé is a selection from an exceptional vintage, with only a select few Grands Crus of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir going into the blend of a future vintage of Le Grand Siècle.
A rare and exceptional wine that expresses the character of a vintage in the Laurent-Perrier style. The year 2018 was characterised by a mild winter and spring, accompanied by rainfall that encouraged vine growth from budbreak in mid-April. Flowering began in early June.
The hot, sunny summer provided ideal conditions for the grapes to ripen. The harvest began in late August and took place under perfectly stable weather conditions. The grapes, of exceptional quality and great abundance, herald a harmonious and promising vintage.
