Laurent-Perrier Ultra Brut Champagne appears without make-up, in its natural form. It is a brut nature champagne, that is, with no dosage, (no added sugar) and 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 and is made exclusively with grapes from very ripe harvests. The ageing is long, lasting for at least four years.
This Ultra Brut Champagne has a delicate finish, which leaves the palate fresh, and its subtle balance make this the most versatile champagne in Laurent-Perrier's range. Floral and fruit flavours combine with mineral notes to give a wine that is pure without being austere.
"This glorious, golden, waxy, brioche-scented, bone-dry and lengthy aged bubbly is Kate Moss's favourite."
