TASTING NOTE
3 exceptional years chosen for their complementarity among the rare Laurent‑Perrier vintages. A majority of Chardonnay complemented by Pinot Noir from a maximum of 11 Grands Crus out of the 319 Crus in the Champagne region. The « Grand Siècle » (Great Century) is the name given to one of the most prosperous periods (17th century) in the history of France known for the capacity of man, through his works, to create what nature cannot. Louis XIVth, known as the « Sun King », by creating the « Château de Versailles » and its gardens, was the architect of this model of harmony, balance and perfection.
A very complex nose which mixes honeysuckle, lemon, clementine and fresh butter aromas, followed by notes of hazelnuts and a touch of honey. The attack in the mouth is very delicate and fresh with candied lemon and fresh hazelnuts aromas. The palate is silky and mineral notes of honeysuckle, flaked almonds and clementine.
