WINEMAKING, BLENDING AND AGING
Only the cuvée musts are used for blending, that is, only 80% of the grape juice extraction.
Grape varieties:
A majority of Chardonnay, more than 50 percent
Pinot Noir, more than 30 percent to 35 percent
supplemented by Meunier, 10 to 15 percent
+ Reserve wines from 15 to 30%* to ensure perfect consistency of style.
Cru:
More than 100 Cru* selected by Laurent-Perrier are blended in the composition of “La Cuvée.”
“La Cuvée” benefits from an ideal aging of about 4 years in the cellar. The resulting balance and freshness allow for low dosage.
SENSORY CHARACTERISTICS
A pale gold color. Very fine bubbles feed a very persistent cord of foam.
A delicate nose with aromas of fresh citrus and white flowers.
The complexity of the wine is expressed in successive notes such as vine peach and white fruits. A perfect balance of freshness and finesse with very present fruity flavors at the end of the tasting.
Serving temperature: between 8°C and 10°C.
