Le Black Label Brut / N.V. / 75cl
Over the centuries, the winemakers at Lanson have built a veritable library of reserve wines spanning over 20 years.
To take the aromatic depth of their blends even further, in 2013 Hervé Dantan (Head Winemaker) established a “perpetual reserve”, maintained every year from the previous blend. A part of this reserve wine, aged in stainless steel, is a mark of identity. The other, aged in barrels, is guided towards its finest expression through this additional breathability that is only possible with wood.
This particular blend is focussed around the 2015 harvest, made up of a blend on 100 crus, 35% of which come from Reserve wines and disgorged after 4 years of ageing.
Appearance
Amber shimmers are reflected in a gleaming colour with a fine stream of bubbles.
NOSE
A bouquet of tangy fruit among which aromas of William pear, apple and citrus are precisely identifiable. After a few minutes, aromas of freshly-baked pastries appear.
PALATE
Generous with flavours of ripe orchard fruit, notes of mandarin, lemon and grapefruit that burst on the palate, providing a sensation of freshness. Maturity is expressed through notes of brioche and dried fruit
