Rooted in the heart of Champagne for over two centuries, Maison Laurent-Perrier has forged a global reputation for excellence, boldness and refinement. True to its family values and pioneering spirit, it continues to redefine the region's standards.
Laurent-Perrier, a forward-thinking House at the heart of Champagne
Established in Tours-sur-Marne back in 1812, Laurent-Perrier is a House that has remained family-owned and independent across generations. Its history is intertwined with that of innovation in Champagne: committed to a Sustainable Viticulture approach, the House has built its identity around three distinctive technical pillars — the mastery of blending reserve wines, the art of Pinot Noir maceration, and the crafting of cuvées without dosage.
The stylistic signature of an exceptional House
It is to Bernard de Nonancourt that we owe the soul and identity of Laurent-Perrier. By combining deep respect for the traditions of Champagne with an unwavering curiosity for new production techniques, he shaped the contours of an inimitable style, built on freshness, purity and elegance. Each of the House's cuvées bears this signature, testifying to a remarkable consistency in quality.
Three pillars of excellence: the expertise of Laurent-Perrier
The blending of reserve wines
Over the decades, Laurent-Perrier has perfected a rare expertise in the management and preservation of its reserve wines. Each year, the House carries out a rigorous selection, favouring wines with vibrant freshness, exceptional ageing potential and preserved aromatic richness. This philosophy finds its most accomplished expression in Grand Siècle, the House's Prestige Cuvée, as well as in Héritage — two champagnes that embody this art of blending in all its splendour.
Pinot Noir maceration
A true pioneer, Laurent-Perrier charted a new path in the crafting of rosé champagnes as early as the 1960s, elevating this category to its rightful nobility. It is thanks to its unique mastery of Pinot Noir maceration that the House has established itself as an absolute benchmark in this field, magnificently embodied by its Cuvée Rosé, a genuine symbol of the range.
The boldness of no dosage
Laurent-Perrier is among the very first producers to have championed and popularised champagne with no added sugar. As early as 1981, the House launched its Ultra Brut, well before the "Brut Nature" category officially existed — a category later created at the House's own request. A founding act, revealing the resolutely forward-thinking vision of the estate.
Exceptional bottles, blending elegance and aromatic complexity
Every bottle signed Laurent-Perrier reflects an ongoing quest for harmony between finesse and depth. The aromatic subtlety and complexity of the cuvées owe much to the prominent role given to Chardonnay in the blends, ensuring each bottle a distinctive identity, at once delicate and memorable.
Grand Siècle: the excellence of terroir
Grand Siècle represents the supreme achievement of the art of blending at Laurent-Perrier. The ambition of each Iteration of this Prestige Cuvée is to recreate an ideal year by combining three reserve wines and two emblematic grape varieties — Chardonnay and Pinot Noir — sourced from the finest terroirs, drawing on up to 11 of the 17 Grands Crus of Champagne.
Cuvée Rosé: the sublime expression of Pinot Noir
Presented in its unmistakable bottle, adorned with the iconic LP crest, Laurent-Perrier's Cuvée Rosé has become the undisputed benchmark for rosé champagnes. Crafted exclusively from Pinot Noir vinified through maceration, it delivers a sensory explosion evocative of a basket of freshly picked red fruits, with unrivalled intensity and vivacity.
A true manifesto of Champagne expertise, "La Cuvée" is the result of a meticulously composed blend of more than 100 Crus of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier. To ensure the consistency and regularity of its aromatic profile, up to 30% of reserve wines complete the blend, resulting in a champagne that is fresh, pure and impeccably elegant.
The undisputed forerunner of the Brut Nature category, Laurent-Perrier's Ultra Brut embodies champagne in its most authentic form, with no added sugar whatsoever. Since its launch in 1981, this forward-thinking cuvée has been crafted exclusively from a single year selected for its perfect balance, combining accomplished maturity with restrained acidity. A work of precision that continues to inspire an entire generation of producers.
