Cellier Lanson Le Black Label Brut Champagne N.V.

Founded in 1760 in Reims by François Delamotte, Lanson is one of the oldest Champagne houses. Cellier Lanson Le Black Label Brut Champagne N.V. is a non-vintage Brut made from a blend of 35% Chardonnay, 50% Pinot Noir and 15% Pinot Meunier, with 40 to 50 crus vinified separately before blending. Lanson avoids malolactic fermentation and ages this cuvée in the cellar for at least three years, preserving a naturally crisp, fresh style.

In the glass, it shows a brilliant, clear straw colour with hints of amber. A fine stream of persistent bubbles leads into a nose of vitality with spring scents, alongside touches of toast and honey. The palate combines ripe fruit and citrus, finishing long and lingering.
