Regarding the Champagne Lanson Clos Lanson 2008 magnum
Vinified separately, the wines from Clos Lanson have unique and rare characteristics that have always seduced the House's Cellar Masters. In 2006, the decision was taken to offer the eponymous Cuvée Clos Lanson, the only hectare of vines within the historic city limits of Reims.
Clos Lanson 2008 is a 100% Chardonnay Champagne, the juice from which comes exclusively from the first press, and is vinified for several months in oak barrels from the Argonne forest, in accordance with Victor Lanson's wishes. After thirteen years' ageing in our cellars, the result is a precious wine of great finesse and remarkable purity.
This cuvée with its fine bubbles reveals a precise, lively nose, with a beautiful freshness. On the palate, notes of pear and yuzu offer great finesse. Ageing in oak barrels brings out woody hazelnut flavors. This 2008 vintage offers an excellent balance between concentration and freshness.
Clos Lanson 2008 has all the attributes of a great Chardonnay. It's sold here in magnum. Please note that there are only 256 numbered magnums, presented in their beautiful wooden box..
A great Chardonnay to enjoy with shellfish or grilled sea bass. This magnum is presented in a luxurious wooden box.
