Laurent-Perrier Grand Siècle Itération Champagne Gift Box

A masterpiece of three vintages

Discover the art of perfection with Grand Siècle Iteration No. 26, an exceptional champagne crafted from a harmonious blend of the vintage years 2012 (65%), 2008 (25%), and 2007 (10%). Predominantly Chardonnay, complemented by refined Pinot Noir from up to 11 of the most prestigious Grands Crus, this cuvée embodies the ultimate pursuit of balance, finesse, and aromatic complexity.

In Champagne, a vintage is generally considered synonymous with an outstanding Prestige Cuvée. In contrast, Laurent-Perrier believes that blending is an art that allows us to create what nature alone can never give us: the perfect year. The perfect year is expressed in a magnificent champagne, with complex aromas and profound intensity, which over time retains its freshness and vibrant acidity, allowing it to age gracefully for many years.

The 2012 harvest produced elegant, balanced Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs with subtle red fruit aromas, thanks to a harsh winter and a warm, dry summer that yielded wines of great finesse. 2008 brought cool, sunny summers that resulted in wines with structured complexity and exceptional aromatic richness. The warm spring of 2007, followed by a mixed summer, gave fresh and straightforward wines, with Chardonnays showing nuances of white and citrus fruits and Pinot Noirs revealing aromas of yellow fruits. Together, these three vintages create a blend that combines depth, freshness, and elegance.

With 10 years of aging on the lees for the bottle, and even longer for the magnum, Grand Siècle reveals a silky texture, remarkable aromatic depth, and timeless freshness. This champagne pairs perfectly with refined dishes such as delicate shellfish, noble fish, Thai-style langoustine tartare, or perfectly prepared Volaille de Bresse.
