Description:

In 1881, when Cellar Master Eugne Laurent inherited the Alphonse PierlotChampagne House, he provided it with the essential foundations required to produce great champagnes, namely the houses and land to create a fully-fledged estate. He purchased vines in the very best terroirsof Bouzy, Tours-sur-Marne, and Ambonnay, excavated 800 metres of cellars, and set up a tasting laboratory.

That is how the Domaine Laurent-Perrier (the Estate) was anchored in Tours-sur-Marne. This picturesque village is ideally situated at the crossroads of the three main wine growing areas of the Marne dpartement: the Montagne de Reims, the Valle de la Marne and the Cte des Blancs. It is also part of the 17 Champagne villages ranking in the prestigious Grand Cru area.

Tasting Note:

Laurent-Perriers style and personality is defined by its high proportion of Chardonnay. Purity, freshness and elegance essential characteristics expressed in this champagne are a good introduction to the spirit of the House.
