✨ Technical Specifications
Champagne Lanson, founded in 1760 by François Delamotte, is one of the oldest houses in Reims. Famous for its historic decision to avoid malolactic fermentation, Lanson preserves the natural, vibrant acidity of the grapes, which serves as the perfect structural backbone for the Ivory Label Demi-Sec. This historic cuvée is a traditional blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Meunier, enriched with a significant proportion of reserve wines. While dry Champagnes dominate the modern market, the Ivory Label pays homage to the 19th-century preference for sweeter styles. The generous dosage is masterfully offset by Lanson's signature mouthwatering freshness, resulting in a rich, honeyed palate of ripe stone fruits, brioche, and candied citrus.
