Brut 2012

Laurent-Perrier bottles its vintage Brut only in good years. The 2012 consists of 50 per cent Chardonnay and 50 per cent Pinot Noir from renowned crus. It combines aromatic richness with the clear house style. The nose is chalky and mineral, with citrus and white fruits. On the palate it starts lively, is deep and fresh, and ends with notes of bitter orange and lemon. The mousse is fine.

This champagne is a table wine. It suits dense, delicate textures such as mussels, fine fish, poultry or veal fillet. Serve it at 9 to 11 °C in a white wine glass or a tulip glass, so that minerality and fruit can unfold. Each bottle comes in a gift box, which makes it a fitting present.
