Laurent-Perrier
With over 160,000 visitors throughout the week and a high level of media and BBC TV interest, the RHS Chelsea Flower Show is a key sponsorship for Champagne Laurent-Perrier. Guests at the prestigious Gala Preview night enjoy a glass of Laurent-Perrier Champagne – the Official Champagne of not only the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, but all RHS flower shows.
The Laurent-Perrier Garden this year embodies understated romance and sophistication, inspired by Champagne Laurent-Perrier’s own elegant style. It is a perfect space to enjoy a glass of Laurent-Perrier Cuvée Rosé Brut Champagne. Perfectly refined and deliciously fresh, yet with an intense red fruit aroma it epitomises the style and spirit of Laurent-Perrier and is the ultimate champagne to enjoy on an al-fresco summer evening.
Established in 1812, Champagne Laurent-Perrier is one of the most distinguished family-owned Champagne Houses. Based in the heart of Champagne, in Tours-sur-Marne, Laurent-Perrier has a pedigree for innovation, handcrafting a diverse and pioneering range of fine champagnes that are produced to traditional, time-honoured methods.
The House was acquired by the Nonancourt family in the late 1930s and for over 50 years Bernard de Nonancourt has dedicated his life to innovating and perfecting Laurent-Perrier Champagne. Today, Laurent-Perrier is one of the great success stories in Champagne, and is now the fourth largest champagne brand worldwide.
Laurent-Perrier is renowned for achieving many firsts – in the late fifties the House introduced the first multi-vintage prestige cuvée, which represents the epitome of Laurent-Perrier’s ‘art of assemblage’ – Grand Siècle by Laurent-Perrier. Twenty years on, Laurent-Perrier was the first Champagne House to reintroduce the concept of brut nature champagne, with its Laurent-Perrier Ultra Brut. Laurent-Perrier was also the driver of the rosé revolution, with its unique Laurent-Perrier Cuvée Rosé Brut, first launched in 1968 – the benchmark rosé to which all others aspire.
The Daily Telegraph
The Daily Telegraph’s garden for the 2010 RHS Chelsea Flower Show will be designed by the internationally renowned garden designer Andy Sturgeon. The Daily Telegraph garden will once again occupy a prime site on the Main Avenue at the 2010 RHS Chelsea Flower Show.
The inspiration for this year’s garden is taken from Andy’s extensive travels around the world. The contemporary gravel garden will bring together flavours of the Fynbos of the southern Cape, the Maquis shrubland of the Mediterranean, the Chaparral of California and Mexico, and the Matorral of central Chile.
The Daily Telegraph garden was awarded the top prize of Best in Show by Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) judges at the 2009 Chelsea Flower Show.
Telegraph Media Group Limited publishes The Daily Telegraph, The Sunday Telegraph, Telegraph.co.uk and The Telegraph weekly world edition.
