Champagne Laurent Perrier Ultra Brut NV

Champagne, FranceThere is no dosage in this wine so the grapes are picked a little riper with slightly lower acidity. Light cherry, quince, citrus, pear, baked apple and creamy toast aromas. Very dry, round, elegant and crisp with nutty, toasty, mineral, green apple and citrus peel flavours. A touch simple but has nice finesse. It's mostly 1995 vintage plus some reserve wine (5-15%) so it actually could be vintage champagne.Tasted: 22 March 2005Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:
