Laurent-Perrier Héritage is a profound testament to the art of assemblage pioneered by the historic house founded in 1812. Championed by the legendary Bernard de Nonancourt, who defined the house's signature style of freshness and elegance, this multi-vintage cuvée is a curated blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir sourced from the finest Grand Cru vineyards of the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims. By selecting and blending reserve wines from exceptional years, Laurent-Perrier crafts a complex, low-dosage Champagne that honors their ancestral savoir-faire. The wine undergoes extended lees aging in the chalk cellars of Tours-sur-Marne, resulting in a sparkling wine of remarkable purity, tension, and depth, reflecting the chalky soils of its prestigious origins.
