Champagne Grand Siecle by Laurent Perrier Iteration No. 23

Norbert says:

The creation of the ideal vintage Iteration No. 23 is a blend of the top vintages 2006-2004-2002, only in magnum.

A surprisingly light yellow dress with delicate perlage, which has a fine chain of bubbles. On the nose it shows pastry notes of hazelnuts, fresh butter and warm brioches. On the palate, the wine is elegant, lively and has a nice balance between freshness and saltiness. The finish is long and envelops the palate with a silky texture. The aging period is an incredible 14 years on the lees. At a tasting in the Falstaff trade journal, the Grand Siecle No. 23rd first place with 98 points ahead of Krug Champagner. Estimated shelf life 2035.
