Its creation is contemporary like that of Nouvelle Cuisine. Similar to this lighter, purer way of preparing food, Laurent-Perrier Ultra Brut appears without make-up, in its natural form. It is a brut nature champagne, that is, with no dosage, & making it requires considerable know-how. Its style appeals to a growing number of wine-lovers who discover with it many new ways of enjoying champagne. The blend combines a small majority of chardonnay with pinot noir & is made exclusively with grapes from very ripe harvests. Bunch selection is rigorous, to ensure that only the grapes with high sugar levels & low acidity are retained. These conditions are necessary to create a finished champagne that has the required balance without any dosage. The ageing is long, lasting for at least four years. Its delicate finish, which leaves the palate fresh, & its subtle balance make this the most versatile champagne in Laurent-Perrier's range. Its capacity to bring out flavours in food makes it absolutely ideal from aperitif to dessert. This champagne pairs well with caviar or foie gras, seafood or oysters - & even accompanying a cigar at the end of a meal. Aspect: Very pale & crystal-bright in colour. Aroma: Intense & complex on the nose, with a wide range of aromas, including citrus & white fruit & flowers, such as Honeysuckel. The combined effect gives off an impression of freshness, much like ocean air. Taste: Airy & delicate, yet surprisingly long. Floral & fruit flavours combine with mineral notes to give a wine that is pure without being austere. he finish is long & leaves the palate clean. Serving: Serve between 8°C & 10°C. Grape Varieties: Chardonnay 55%, Pinot Noir 45%. Crus: Made exclusively from grapes from very ripe harvests & blended from fifteen crus or villages with an average rating of 97%. ...
Laurent-Perrier has elected to be highly selective by only producing a vintage in the very best years. This means that the Brut Millesime is an exceptional & rare wine.

Laurent-Perrier's vintage wines have excellent ageing capacity. A golden-yellow hue with greenish tinges typical of the chardonnay grape. Fine & persistent bubbles. Very elegant, blending ripe fruit aromas, such as pink grapefruit & yellow peach, with hints of chocolate & creme brulee. The entry is pleasantly firm, with whiffs of vanilla. It opens to yellow fruit flavours & has a lingering, crisp finish that shows citrus-fruit flavours. A fine wine, full of character. Grape: Chardonnay 45 % & Pinot Noir 55 %. ...
Appearance: A light yellow with delicate beading.
Aroma: A delicate, subtle nose with aromas of fresh pineapple, dried apricots & almonds.

The Vintage 2006 pairs harmoniously with fish in sauce, while its roundness & delicacy will prolong your tasting pleasure in the company of poultry or other white meats.
Laurent-Perrier is selective when declaring vintages - rarely declaring them & only in the very best years with a unique character. Thus the Vintage 2006 is an exceptional wine & while it maintains the signature style of the House's wines, it reflects the unique characteristics of the vintage year.
