Pure alchemy! Midsummer House’s Laurent-Perrier-paired gastronomy

Working with the finest Michelin-starred restaurants is the most authentic way to tell the story of Grand Siècle and illustrate its gastronomic qualities. So says Lucie Pereyre de Nonancourt, fourth generation at Champagne Laurent-Perrier, during an exclusive, money-can’t-buy, dinner experience at two Michelin star Midsummer House in Cambridge. Pairing a chef of Daniel Clifford's calibre – with his deep understanding of flavour, precision and provenance – with the house's champagnes creates something neither could achieve alone. Our own Roger Jones, a one-time Michelin star chef himself, was there analysing the wines and their food pairing.
