Product Description
Laurent-Perrier Grande Siècle N°26 is a prestige Champagne built from three exceptional vintages—2012, 2008 and 2007—and eight Grand Cru villages. Predominantly Chardonnay with Pinot Noir, it rests for more than a decade on lees, embodying the house’s pursuit of a “perfect year” through masterful assemblage.
Honeysuckle, candied lemon, grapefruit, fresh hazelnut and toast lead into a silky, mineral palate. Its fine mousse, vibrant acidity and saline persistence deliver exceptional depth without sacrificing freshness. James Suckling calls it “electric on the palate,” “savory and vibrant… full of energy,” and simply “spectacular.”
