✨ wine.spec_sheet
To celebrate its landmark 250th anniversary, Champagne Lanson crafted the 'Extra Age' range as an ultimate tribute to the house's historic art of blending. The Extra Age Brut Rosé is a prestigious multi-vintage cuvée that marries the complexity of three exceptional vintages, aged for a minimum of five years on the lees in Lanson's historic chalk cellars. Sourced exclusively from Grand Cru and Premier Cru plots, the blend highlights Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims for structure and delicate red fruit character, alongside Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs for elegance and mineral precision. True to Lanson's time-honored philosophy, the wine avoids malolactic fermentation, preserving a vibrant, mouthwatering acidity that beautifully balances its rich, autolytic notes of brioche, wild strawberry, and redcurrant.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Founded in 1760 by François Delamotte, Champagne Lanson is one of the oldest Champagne houses, located in the historic city of Reims within the Champagne region of France. Renowned for its distinctive style, the house traditionally avoids malolactic fermentation to preserve the natural crispness, vibrant acidity, and exceptional aging potential of its wines. Lanson's portfolio is anchored by its iconic Black Label Brut NV and Rose Label Brut NV, alongside prestigious cuvées like the Noble Cuvée and the rare Clos Lanson, sourced from a historic walled vineyard in the heart of Reims. Today, the house continues to champion sustainable viticulture, blending centuries of heritage with a commitment to freshness and elegance.
