Laurent-Perrier can always be relied upon to produce a top champagne and for this Christmas, they’ve bought out a limited Edition Grand Sicle with a stunning Cradle to make it that extra little bit special.

The Cradle is dual-purpose and is made specifically for the Grand Sicle bottle. It’s handcrafted by traditional Loire Valley pewtersmiths and whilst looking great and working just fine as a pourer, it also features a cooling mat which discreetly sits within the cradle. This ensures that the bottle is chilled to a perfect 10°C, maintaining the ideal temperature throughout the meal. Just freeze the mat for an hour before use.

David Biraud, a consultant on the design and also an award-winning Paris sommelier said, The pouring cradle is a highly sophisticated chilling device that has taken great technical expertise to perfect.

The set, including a 75cl bottle of Grand Sicle is available in a wooden gift box from Harrods, Selfridge’s and Fortnum and Mason.
