Laurent-Perrier Brut Millesime 2015 1.5L

Description

Product Description:An elegant reflection of a singular year in Champagne. The Laurent-Perrier Brut Millesime 2015 expresses the house’s hallmark purity through a season of extremes that yielded wines of depth and structure. Made only in outstanding years, this vintage blends equal parts Chardonnay from the Cote des Blancs and Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims. After seven years of lees ageing, the result is a Champagne of tension, finesse and quiet richness. The 2015 season began with a mild winter and erratic spring before settling into a warm, dry summer and a perfectly timed cool September. The fruit achieved ideal balance between ripeness and acidity, allowing Laurent-Perrier’s restrained hand to guide the wine toward precision. In magnum, the wine shows even greater freshness and longevity, a format that enhances its slow, graceful development in bottle.
