Description

Laurent-Perrier  Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature
100% Chardonnay | Alc: 12%
Champagne, France

Winemaker’s notes:
The wine has a white gold color with a fine sparkle. The nose displays minerality and hints of citrus. On the palate the wine is balanced and sustained with a finish that is fresh with notes of lemon.
The Blanc de Blancs is a true wine for gastronomy pairing well with the finest fish: sea bass with salt crust, scallops, grilled marinated squid with lemon, thyme, olive oil as well white meats such as veal tartare with ginger and lemon.

Critical Acclaim:
“A dense and flavorful chardonnay with creamy texture and flavor. Lots of citrus and grapefruit and very vinous. A blanc de blancs with weight yet freshness. Pure chardonnay with no dosage. A new wine. Lovely finish. 40% 2009 and 60% 2012. Drink now.”  94 Pts – James Suckling

“This Champagne is certainly dry, a crisp apple- and citrus-led wine from Chardonnay. Its acidity has softened with bottle age to give a wine that is beautifully balanced, ready for more aging in bottle. Drink now for the freshness or wait until 2021 for more maturity.” 93 Pts – Wine Enthusiast

“Ginger’s rooty spice parallels the austere acidity of this wine, while the flesh is full and generous enough to fill it with apple and lemon flavors. It’s round for a Brut Nature, ready to take on an oyster pan roast.”  90 Pts – Wine & Spirits
