✨ Technical Specifications
Laurent-Perrier, established in 1812, has long been synonymous with elegance, innovation, and a pioneering spirit in Champagne. Holding a prestigious Royal Warrant from the British Royal Family, the house has frequently graced historic royal celebrations and weddings. This commemorative Royal Wedding Cuvee Blanc de Blancs celebrates this grand heritage. Crafted exclusively from 100% Chardonnay sourced from the finest Grand Cru vineyards of the Côte des Blancs—including Cramant, Avize, Oger, and Mesnil-sur-Oger—this cuvée showcases the absolute purity of the grape. Vinified primarily in stainless steel to preserve pristine freshness and vibrant acidity, the wine undergoes extended cellar aging on its lees. The result is a majestic Champagne defined by its chalky minerality, citrus zest, white floral aromas, and a delicate, creamy mousse that pays homage to royal refinement.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1812 by André Michel Pierlot in Tours-sur-Marne, Laurent-Perrier grew into one of Champagne's preeminent family-owned houses under the visionary stewardship of Bernard de Nonancourt. Situated at the junction of the Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne, and Côte des Blancs, the domaine draws from prestigious Grand Cru villages rooted in deep, moisture-regulating Belemnite chalk and limestone subsoils. Pioneering the systematic use of stainless-steel temperature-controlled fermentation during the late 1970s, Laurent-Perrier forged a signature vinous architecture anchored by Chardonnay dominance, absolute reductive clarity, crystalline freshness, and pristine tension without oxidative masking. Led cellar-side by Chef de Cave Olivier Vigneron under the custodianship of the de Nonancourt family, the estate's benchmark cuvées include its emblematic Cuvée Rosé macerated from 100% Pinot Noir and the prestigious Grand Siècle, a benchmark multi-vintage prestige assemblage blending three complementary declared vintage declarations to reconstruct the ideal year.
