2002 was one of those vintages that got everyone a bit giddy. Excellent weather conditions-rain at the right times and a sunny run up to harvest meant grapes of high quality and wines that were built to last.
Laurent Perrier have released their 2002 to eager champagne fans across the UK but my advice would be to buy some and then hide it. A bakers dozen is the perfect approach to vintage L-P in my books as it is crisp, light and fresh when they release it which is a joy to drink with seafood and other light nibbles but after a few years the complexity it develops is a sure fire reward for your patience.
