Laurent Perrier Alexandra 1988 is a vintage, prestige-cuvée rosé Champagne produced in Tours-sur-Marne, France. Cuvée Alexandra is the ultimate expression of Laurent Perrier. Only released in exceptional years, it is produced from a rigorous selection from the house`s best vineyard plots of Grands Crus Pinot Noir and Chardonnay fruit. The first vintage of this wine was 1982. 1988 was an exceptional Champagne vintage, producing many long-lived wines of which this is an perfect example.

Vinous
The 1988 Brut Grande Cuvée Rosé Alexandra will thrill readers who enjoy Rosés with the nuance that develops in bottle. No doubt the bright acids of the vintage helped the 1988 Alexandra age with breathtaking grace. Sweet tobacco, incense and mint add layers of complexity to a core of Pinot-driven fruit. Simply put, the 1988 Alexandra is a jewel of a wine. It is also the only vintage Champagne Laurent-Perrier made in 1988.Antonio Galloni1st July 2019

Elegant Blanc and Rosé
The Laurent-Perrier portfolio is built around three distinct expressions of its unique savoir-faire. The first is the art of assemblage of reserve wines, exemplified by Grand Siècle - a prestige cuvée crafted from three exceptional years to recreate the perfect year. The second is the mastery of maceration, an innovative winemaking technique that led to the creation of Cuvée Rosé in 1968. Finally, the House pioneered the non-dosage (zero dosage) style with the launch of Ultra Brut in 1981, a visionary approach that continues today with Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature.
