YEAR

Wines from Clos Lanson have rare, unique characteristics that have always appealed to Lanson Wine-Makers. In 2006, the decision was made to offer connoisseurs the eponymous Cuvée from this promising vintage. Clos Lanson is a vintage Champagne whose juice, which comes exclusively from the first pressing, is vinified for several months in oak barrels. After lengthy ageing in cellars, a precious wine is obtained: radiant, rich and extremely elegant.

EYE - The colour is a brilliant pale gold. It boasts green shimmers and very fine bubbles.

NOSE - Intense and complex bouquet with notes of acacia blossom and citrus enriched with delicious, gently vanilla-scented aromas of patisserie, almonds and roasted hazelnuts. A hint of seaweed and smoky notes complete this highly expressive bouquet.

PALATE - The generosity of the brioche and praline flavours contrasts with the airy, delicate quality of the floral, lemony notes. The finish is saline, precise and graceful on the palate.
