Champagne Grand Cru Brut "Grand Siècle Iteration n°26" | Wine from LA MAISON Laurent Perrier

Champagne Champagne Grand Cru Brut "Grand Siècle Iteration n°26" Champagne Laurent Perrier

LA MAISON of Champagne Laurent Perrier dates back to 1812, created by André Michel Pierlot, it took the name of Veuve Laurent-Perrier when Mathilde Emilie Perrier, widow of Eugène Laurent, decided to combine the two family names while she was in charge of its development. In 1939, Marie-Louise de Nonancourt, widow and mother of four children, anxious to ensure their future, acquired Domaine Laurent-Perrier. In 1945, Bernard de Nonancourt began a demanding apprenticeship in all the stages of the vine trade in the cellar before being appointed Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in October 1948, at the age of 28. LA MAISON employed around twenty people and sold 80,000 bottles. Driven by a passion for champagne, respect for traditional values and, above all, for men, Bernard de Nonancourt instilled in Laurent-Perrier independence of spirit and creative audacity. He established privileged relationships with the winegrowers; Under his leadership, Laurent-Perrier, in barely 40 years, became a true innovator in Champagne. He created the Laurent-Perrier style: freshness, finesse, elegance, and developed a unique range of champagnes that were exported around the world to more than 160 countries.
