Grapes: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir
Tasting profile
Structure: medium-bodied, high acidity, dry
Lanson declares a vintage only in exceptional years, and Le Vintage is held at least ten years on lees before disgorgement, with no malolactic fermentation to soften it. The fruit comes exclusively from Grand and Premier Cru parcels, and the result arrives already complex yet still taut — citrus oil, pastry and toasted almond over a firm, chalky line of acidity. It is a Champagne with the reserve to keep building for years after release rather than one to open on impulse.
Serving: Serve at 6–8 °C.
