Laurent-Perrier Description
In the charming village of Tours-sur-Marne, where the three main vineyards converge, Maison Laurent-Perrier found its roots in 1812. Established by former cooper and bottler André-Michel Pierlot, this Champagne house has since evolved into a symbol of elegance and innovation. Nestled in the Grand Cru village and sprawling over plots named Les Plaisances and La Tour Glorieux, Laurent-Perrier opened its doors and embarked on a journey that would redefine the world of Champagne.
Originally known as Veuve Laurent-Perrier, the house saw transformations under various leaders. From Eugène Laurent to Mathilde-Emilie Perrier and eventually Bernard de Nonancourt, the torchbearers of Laurent-Perrier demonstrated unwavering dedication and vision. Bernard de Nonancourt, post-World War II, not only survived the war but also led the house to unparalleled heights. With an eye for innovation, he shaped the Laurent-Perrier style—freshness, elegance, purity—a style that remains a hallmark of the brand to this day.
As a testament to its commitment to excellence, Laurent-Perrier ventured into the Paris Stock Exchange’s Second Market. The dynamic duo of Alexandra Pereyre and Stéphanie Meneux de Nonancourt, alongside Chairman Stéphane Dalyac, epitomizes the family-led spirit that propels Laurent-Perrier forward. With Michel Fauconnet as the 3rd Cellar Master, the family legacy thrives, ensuring that the brand’s values of high standards and elegance endure.
Laurent-Perrier, under Bernard de Nonancourt’s leadership, cultivated a unique style characterized by freshness, elegance, and purity. This style birthed a range of champagnes that became synonymous with consistent quality. From Cuvée Rosé to Grand Siècle, each offering tells a story of expertise, precision, and a commitment to perfection.
Laurent-Perrier’s commitment to quality extends to its winemaking practices. Since the 1950s, the house adopted stainless steel vats, setting a trend in the industry. The thermo-regulated vat room, a brainchild of Bernard de Nonancourt, reinforced the commitment to freshness. Michel Fauconnet, the 3rd Cellar Master, perfected the art of blending, emphasizing the quest for excellence that defines Laurent-Perrier’s spirit.
Laurent-Perrier’s dedication to innovation is exemplified by the creation of the renowned Cuvée Rosé in 1968. Born from a unique maceration technique, this brut rose champagne sets itself apart. The house’s commitment to breaking conventions continued with the introduction of the “Grand Vin Sans Sucre” in 1889 and Laurent-Perrier Ultra Brut in 1981. In 2019, the innovation journey reached new heights with the introduction of Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature, making Laurent-Perrier the first Grande Maison de Champagne to offer such a blend.
Laurent-Perrier embraces sustainable viticulture as a cornerstone of its environmental strategy. Certified in Sustainable Viticulture in Champagne (VDC) and High Environmental Value (HVE), the house strives for a harmonious relationship with nature. This commitment extends beyond certifications, encompassing waste reduction, efficient resource management, and environmental responsibility.
Since the 1950s, Laurent-Perrier has been a steadfast companion to French gastronomy. With a range crafted to complement the finesse of French cuisine, Laurent-Perrier has become a staple in the world of gastronomy. The house has played a vital role in enhancing culinary creations, turning every meal into a celebration.
In every bubble of Laurent-Perrier brut rose champagne, there’s a tale of legacy, innovation, and a commitment to crafting perfection. From the historic village of Tours-sur-Marne to the global stage, Laurent-Perrier stands tall, an emblem of elegance and a true pioneer in the world of champagne.
