LAURENT P. MILLESIME BRUT 6X75CL

Product Description

Laurent-Perrier Brut Millesime 2008 is a very rarely makes vintages, declaring less than one out of two years compared with the market average of over three out of four years. Exclusively crafted from the best Crus – Chardonnay grapes from the Côte des Blancs and Pinot Noir grapes from the Montagne de Reims.

The Vintage is the choice of an exceptional year from which selected Grands Crus of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir 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 VINTAGE 2008 was characterized by a cold but not harsh winter and a dull and rainy spring. Harvest started mid-September in dry and cold conditions, perfect weather for healthy grapes which provided attractive Chardonnays and Pinots Noirs. These high quality grapes revealed an outstanding aromatic richness that augured well for an exceptional Vintage.
