This one’s label is in great shape as on picture. Always layed up in dark place. The Perfect Balance This wine comes from the purest grape juice and it alone allows Laurent-Perrier to craft "La Cuvée", a champagne of great finesse and a beautiful freshness obtained after a long ageing process in our cellars. Laurent-Perrier's style and personality are defined by its very high proportion of Chardonnay. Purity, freshness and elegance - essential characteristics, expressed in this champagne which embodies the spirit of the House. VINIFICATION, BLENDING AND AGEING For blending, only the musts of the cuvée are used, so only 80% of the grape juice extracted from pressing. Grape varietals: a majority of Chardonnay, over 50% Pinot Noir, between 30% and 35% rounded out with Meunier, between 10% and 15% + Reserve wines between 15% and 30%* to ensure perfect consistency in style.
