Laurent Perrier Grand Siecle Cuvee #25 Brut Champagne

Beautiful aromas of hazelnuts, apples, kumquats, and pastry notes. The palate is elegant with an apricot preserve, lemon, minerals and a crisp apple finish. D&M Tasting Notes

The NV Brut Grande Cuvée Grand Siècle No. 25 is bright and gracious in feel. Orchard fruit, mint, dried flowers, lemon peel, graphite and chamomile are beautifully lifted. The No. 25 is fresh and taut, but also has enough fruit to be approachable now. The blend of vintages - 2008 (60%), 2007 (20%), 2006 (20%) - is quite complementary. I liked the No. 25 more from magnum, but then again, Champagne often shows so well in larger formats. 94 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous November 2021  7 grams dosage
