Based on synced-fermented 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay from company-owned grand cru vineyards, the salmon-pink colored 2004 Alexandra Grande Cuvée Rosé displays a very subtle and fresh bouquet of great elegance and purity. Intense and complex on the palate, this is a very dry, fresh and tension-filled Rosé full of energy and delicacy. Very elegant and still a bit limey, but a great Champagne.<br/><br/>Champagnes of Laurent-Perrier are mainly based on Chardonnay, whereas Pinot Noir is a junior partner and Meunier is only a very small part of the cuvées. Chef de cave François Cotard tries to extract the maximum of the aromatic part of the fruit to keep the natural freshness. That's why he ferments at controlled temperatures at 16 to 17 degrees Celsius in nothing but stainless steel vats. All of the cuvées undergo malolactic fermentation. Since Cotard protects his musts and wines from oxidation and racks the wines from the first lees very early, the wine style of LP is a very clear and reductive one. The assemblages of varieties, terroirs and vintages are made with the goal of keeping the freshness, finesse and elegance of the wines. The wines receive their maturity only from the aging on the lees from the second fermentation. Laurent-Perrier's range of Champagnes remains the same since 1982. All of the cuvées are excellent gastronomic Champagnes that go very well with food – or as an aperitif. The palate-cleansing Ultra Brut is a perfect Champagne for both aperitif and digestif.<br/><br/>

Rich and creamy, showing candied kumquat and dried apricot flavors married to the lively bead and acidity, with accents of pastry, marzipan, grated coconut and spice. The abundant smoky minerality gains momentum and sings out on the finish. Drink now through 2029.

Laurent Perrier
André Michel Pierlot, ancien tonnelier et embouteilleur originaire de Chigny-les-Roses, a fondé en 1812 ce qui allait devenir par la suite la maison Laurent-Perrier. Celle-ci a été rachetée par la famille de Nonancourt en 1939. Respectueux des valeurs traditionnelles, Bernard de Nonancourt a façonné la marque grâce à sa liberté de penser et à sa créativité audacieuse. Il a relancé les méthodes de vinification classiques au sein de la maison et a réinstauré la traditionnelle méthode champenoise, tout en modernisant les procédés techniques et d’assemblage. Sous la direction du maître de chai, Alain Terrier, les vins incarnent toujours leur histoire et leur personnalité uniques, s’appuyant sur son savoir-faire spécialisé en matière d’assemblage. De nos jours, les champagnes Laurent-Perrier sont réputés pour leur fraîcheur délicate, leur élégance et leur longévité prolongée.
