The House of Laurent-Perrier was Founded in 1812. Fired by a passion for champagne and a respect for traditional values, Bernard de Nonancourt inspired Laurent-Perrier in 1948 with his independent spirit and creative audacity. He created the signature house style of freshness, finesse and elegance and developed a unique range of champagnes. Laurent-Perrier is the only House whose most prestigious and exacting Cuvée, Grand Siècle, is not vintage but numbered, a blend of 3 exceptional vintages in order to recreate the perfect year.

At Laurent-Perrier, they see the art of blending Champagne as a way of drawing out the complexities and ironing out the vagaries of vintages. Being able to draw on mature stocks from across the region allows their Chef de Cave to create a harmonious and luxurious wine in the form of their Grand Siècle.

On 19 June at our Great Portland Street shop, Laurent-Perrier’s David Hesketh MW will present the 100 pt Grand Siècle Iteration No.26. This wine achieved a perfect score with James Suckling and is fast becoming a contemporary icon of wine. The lineup will also include a vertical tasting of 2012 and 2015 vintages as well as two other iterations of Grand Siècle.

This will be a sit-down masterclass with a curated range of wines to taste.

The Whisky Exchange

This June, The Whisky Exchange is hosting a wine festival: The Wine Exchange. While whisky is in our name and is our first love, we are passionate about the full spectrum of drinks and want to celebrate the brilliant wines that we list. Dawn Davies, Master of Wine and The Whisky Exchange’s buying director, has curated a series of events to delve into the range, explore some of the most interesting topics in wine and open up the wide world of wine to as many people as we can. On top of that we will also be opening a collection of wines throughout the month in our central London stores for you to discover. We know that wine can be intimidating. There are grapes, countries, climates, appellations d’origine contrôlée, oak, vintages and so much more that seems to confuse and occlude rather than to explain and engage. The aim of this festival is that with every bottle we open, we open up the world of wine to more people. All of our events have education at their heart, and we believe that the best way to learn about wine, whisky or any other drink, is by tasting alongside the passionate people who make these brilliant bottles. As Davies herself says: “ You knew we were masters of whisky, but did you know we were masters of wine?”
