I can find no mention of it in a couple of the more common listings books. They have a particularly nice Chardonnay Blanc de Blancs, 1981. They label says San Jose and not much else.

Laurent Perrier in California is, as I understand it, a joint venture between Almaden and the "real" Laurent Perrier people in France. The wines are produced at Almaden's facilities, hence no appearance of the Laurent Perrier name on California wine maps. dave bauer AT&T Information Systems Laboratories denver, colorado (inuxc, ihnp4, allegra, rabbit, cbosg)!druca!dlb
