Laurent-Perrier Champagne Grand Siècle Grande Cuvée No. 26 NV is a masterful blend of the,, and vintages, composed of 58% Chardonnay and 42% Pinot Noir from eight Grand Cru villages. Rated a perfect 100 points by James Suckling, it dazzles with aromas of ginger, lemon, honeysuckle, and hazelnut, unfolding into a silky, mineral-driven palate of candied citrus and almond. Aged 10 years on the lees, this Champagne is vibrant, elegant, and symphonic in its balance—an extraordinary expression of Laurent-Perrier's artistry.

Description
James Suckling Review Rated 100 This is really something. Electric on the palate. The aromas are so complex with sliced fresh and dried ginger, subtle pie crust, tarte tatin and hints of nutmeg with some salted caramel. Toasted bread, too. Always subtle. The palate is full- to medium-bodied yet hemmed-in with a freshness and balance that draws you back. Savory and vibrant. It's full of energy. Spectacular. Fascinating. Symphonic blend of 2012, 2008 and 2007. 65% of the 2012, 25% of the 2008 and 10% of the 2007. Eight grand cru. Chardonnay 58% and 42% pinot noir. Disgorged February 2023. 10 years on the lees. 7g/L dosage. Drink or hold.
Wine Tasting Notes
Eye - A white gold color with delicate and persistent bubbles.
Nose - A very complex nose which mixes honeysuckle, lemon, clementine and fresh butter aromas, followed by notes of hazelnut and a touch of honey.
Palate - The attack in the mouth is very delicate and fresh with candied lemon and fresh hazelnut aromas. The palate is silky and mineral with notes of honeysuckle, flaked almonds and clementine.
