Laurent-Perrier Grand Siecle Iteration No.26 MV

An exceptional prestige cuvée that blends three outstanding vintages to achieve perfect harmony. The bouquet is elegant and complex, with citrus, white peach and pear interwoven with notes of brioche, hazelnut and acacia blossom. The palate is refined and layered, showing orchard fruit, lively acidity and a creamy texture leading into a long, graceful finish. Extended lees ageing imparts depth and finesse, creating a Champagne of remarkable balance and longevity.

Since its creation in 1959, Grand Siècle has embodied Laurent-Perrier’s philosophy of recreating the “perfect year” through blending rather than relying on a single vintage. Iteration No.26, a blend of 2012, 2008 and 2007, reflects the house’s pursuit of elegance, precision and ageworthy complexity.

"Powerful aroma of orange peel and something in the putty/chalk spectrum. It somehow manages to be both tight yet approachable, dense in terms of flavour concentration yet filigree in terms of texture. As usual, it's so Chardonnay! Overriding citrus character and quite amazingly long, a mouthful tingling on the palate for minutes not seconds. Enormous finesse. Massive pleasure. This would make the most luxurious aperitif.” - 19.5 Pts, Jancis Robinson MW
