Tomorrow from 5:00 - 7:00PM Taste Champagne from The House of Lanson
One
of Champagne's oldest Houses Lanson has always blended its champagnes
using a majority of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in order to achieve the
perfect balance of power and finesse. The
House of Lanson has been the official supplier to the British court
since 1900, when Henri Marie Lanson was awarded the title of âPurveyor
of Champagne to Her Majestyâ by Queen Victoria. Later, Lanson also became the only Champagne of the principality of Monaco.

| | Lanson Black Label Brut Champagne NV Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier Champagne, France
A combination of 50% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 15% Pinot Meunier, from numerous crus and from almost ten different years. Lanson Black Label is further enhanced by three years resting in the cellar, including 6 months following disgorging, at which point it reaches perfect maturation.
Subtle hints of long-lasting honey-dew, with notes of ripe and citrus fruits give a sensation of lightness and fullness with a long, fresh finish. Black Label is perfect as an aperitif and a call to celebration.

Lanson Black Label Champagne is an elegant, berry and citrus-infused
bubbly, very fresh and lively, with an intensity that carries through to
the long, long finish." |

Lanson Brut Rosé Champagne Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier
Created in the 1950s, and was one of the first ever Rosé champagnes! It is also one of the most well-loved, particularly for its freshness a blend of 53% Pinot Noir, 32% Chardonnay and 15% Pinot Meunier, from a number of crus and almost ten different years. Like Black Label, it is enhanced through a long maturation of at least three years in the cellar, including at least 6 months after disgorging.
A subtle wine with very fine bubbles. Its aromas of rose and fine fragrances of red fruits echo its pale pink color. Harmonious balance alternating between roundness and freshness.

"Beautiful
texture. It's difficult to pinpoint the individual flavors, so well is
this put together, but fresh berries and graphite come to mind, along
with flowers and citrus. Very complex with a long, lingering finish." |
