PASSIONS<br />

Maison Laurent-Perrier<br />

Two centuries of elegance<br />

Guillaume Deglise, CEO LP Switzerland, Alexandra Pereyre<br />

de Nonancourt, membof of the directory of LP & Pascal Olivier,<br />

gardener designer.<br />

Independent and family owned since its crea-<br />

tion, the Maison Laurent-Perrier owes its suc-<br />

cess to the constant battle to preserve traditions<br />

and values linked to the respect of nature, wine<br />

and the people who are behind the company.<br />

Everything started in 1812 when a modest<br />

cooper bequeathed his company to his cellar<br />

master Eugène Laurent. Eugène Laurent’s<br />

widow, Mathilde-Emilie Perrier then combi-<br />

ned her name and the one of her late husband<br />

to create the Maison Laurent-Perrier.<br />

In 1949, Bernard de Nonancourt took over the<br />

business that his mother had bought ten years<br />

before. From that moment on, the Maison<br />

Laurent-Perrier started to develop subtle and<br />

innovative wines that would become very successful<br />

throughout the world. The values of quality<br />

and independence that Bernard de<br />

Nonancourt established are upheld by his two<br />

daughters, Alexandra Pereyre de Nonancourt<br />

and Stéphanie Meneux de Nonancourt, who are<br />

at the moment the future of the family business.
