The idea of Grand Siècle is based on one observation: nature will probably .never provide the perfect oenological year but thanks to the art of assemblage, Laurent-Perrier can in fact create it.

Going far beyond rare vintages, Grand Siècle is the blending of three outstanding years declared as vintages by Laurent-Perrier and chosen for their complementary traits. Grand Siècle is the unique expression of excellence in a champagne: “it is the blending of the best with the best to obtain the best”.
