Laurent Perrier Brut Millesime 2015 Vintage Gift Boxed Champagne 75cl

Laurent Perrier Millesime Vintage 2015 The wine is medium straw yellow in colour with an open and well developed nose. On the palate it is rich well sustained with a slight biscuity character from the prolonged lees ageing and a long finish of honeyed ripe fruit. Sending a bottle  Laurent Perrier Champagne makes a gift extra special. 

The Vintage is the choice of an exceptional year from which only a selection of the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir Grands Crus will enter into a future iteration of Grand Siècle. It is a rare and outstanding wine that expresses the character of the year in the Laurent-Perrier style.

The year 2015 is characterised by extreme climatic events: a mild, rainy winter giving way to contrasting weather conditions in spring with an icy period followed by extreme heat and summer storms. Cool, dry weather in September allowed for perfect ripening of the grapes.

Grape varietals:

• Chardonnay 50%
• Pinot Noir 50%

Crus:

• Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs: Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger, Cramant, Chouilly
• Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims: Bouzy, Ay, Verzy, Mailly, Rilly-la-Montagne

The wine is white gold in colour with a fine sparkle.
A flowery nose of great complexity, with notes of citrus and white peaches.
A wine that is very present with a lively attack and great finesse with good minerality and notes of grapefruit on the finish.
Best served between 9°C and 11°C.

WINE/FOOD PAIRINGS
