Champagne Laurent-Perrier Grand Siècle Iteration No. 23 – Magnum 1.5 L

Laurent-Perrier Grand Siècle Iteration N°23 — Magnum 1.5 L

This Laurent-Perrier Grand Siècle Iteration N°23 in magnum embodies one of the most ambitious expressions of Maison Laurent-Perrier. More than a vintage Champagne, Grand Siècle seeks to recreate the idea of a perfect year by blending three complementary great vintages, in order to achieve greater balance, depth and harmony than a single vintage alone.

Iteration N°23 brings together the 2006, 2004 and 2002 vintages, with a Chardonnay-dominant profile that delivers brightness, tension and chalky finesse. In magnum 1.5 L, this Champagne benefits from slower and more harmonious evolution, enhancing its appeal for cellaring, gastronomy and collection.

Terroir: eleven Grands Crus and three complementary vintages

Grand Siècle Iteration N°23 is made from 58% Chardonnay and 42% Pinot Noir, sourced from a selection of 11 Champagne Grands Crus. Chardonnay brings verticality, freshness and mineral precision, while Pinot Noir reinforces structure, depth and vinous presence.

The blend is based on 2006 at 65%, 2004 at 20% and 2002 at 15%. The 2006 vintage brings richness and amplitude, 2004 reinforces freshness and balance, while 2002 contributes structure, intensity and length. In magnum, Iteration N°23 benefited from more than 14 years of ageing on lees, explaining its aromatic depth and particularly accomplished texture.

Tasting notes

Expression of Iteration N°23 and the value of magnum

Iteration N°23 offers a mature, fresh and deeply harmonious expression of Grand Siècle. The richness of the 2006 and 2002 vintages is balanced by the tension of 2004, creating a Champagne that is ample yet never heavy, carried by great mineral precision. In magnum, slower evolution enhances the finesse of the bubbles, aromatic freshness and textural complexity, making it a particularly sought-after format among Champagne lovers.
