Tasting notes
From magnum, disgorged in June 2024 with a dosage of seven grams per liter, Laurent-Perrier’s NV Grand Siècle N°24—a blend of the 2007, 2006 and 2004 vintages, predominantly anchored in the youngest—sources fruit from all 11 grands crus traditionally considered for inclusion in this cuvée. The blend is 55% Chardonnay and 45% Pinot Noir. In the glass, it reveals a bouquet of candied pear, lemon confit, freshly baked bread, dried flowers and hazelnut. Medium- to full-bodied, open-knit and demonstrative, it offers a sweet fruit core supported by a racy spine of acidity. Though slightly less concentrated than the N°26 and N°27 iterations, it remains a compelling release—particularly in magnum—concluding with a precise, saline-tinged finish. It has yet to show the tertiary signatures of age such as moss or licorice.

Tasted from magnum, the NV Champagne Grand Siècle Iteration No. 24 pours a medium yellow hue and has a more brothy, oceanic character, driven by the blend of 2007, 2006, and 2004. It offers notes of grapefruit that almost smell like hops, along with custard, crème brûlée, and confit citrus. Medium to full-bodied, it fills the palate with a ripe yet not heavy feel, showing apricot, almond, and a long, rich texture that leans more into the 2007 vintage. The nose also carries hints of ginger and honey, with mocha and coffee hiding underneath. The blend includes 25% Pinot Noir, with 60% sourced from the 2007 vintage. Drink 2025-2045.
60% 2007, 20% 2006, 20% 2004. 58% Chardonnay from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Cramant, Avize, Chouilly and Oger. 42% Pinot Noir from Bouzy, Ambonnay, Mailly, Verzy, Verzenay, Tours-sur-Marne. 17 years on lees. Disgorged June 2024. Dosage less than 7 g/l. From magnum. Broad and sweeter than the version from 75-cl bottle but lots of energy too. Long lees ageing! 2007 has given freshness. More lively and transparent than the 2024 from 75-cl bottle. Very long and smoky. Tighter than in the bottle! (JR)
Laurent-Perrier’s NV Itération 24 Magnum Brut reveals a complex, deep bouquet of white flowers, confit citrus, mirabelle, spices, menthol and warm biscuits. This full-bodied, enveloping and fleshy Champagne offers a deep, dense mid-palate that is invigorated by racy acidity and concludes with a long, endless and ethereal finish. Slightly more austere and tense than the Brut Grand Siècle #24 released in a bottle, this magnum blend consists of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir, with vintages from 2007 (60%), 2006 (20%) and 2004 (20%).
