Lanson Ivory Label Demi Sec in Ice Jacket
A yellow straw colour with glints of old gold, a reminder of the Pinot Noir in the blend. On the nose aromas of ripe fruit, cinnamon, and honey.
The palate is fruity, very full, all roundness and sensuality.
One of the best pairings for the delicate smoothness of Lanson Ivory Label is with fruit and dessert.
Grape Variety:
35% Chardonnay, 50% Pinot Noir and 15% Pinot Menuier. The blend is made of wines from 50 to 60 different crus.
Background Information:
One of the oldest champagne house, Lanson was founded in 1760 by Francois Delamotte, a magistrate from the Reims. The values and expertise that created the unique and enduring style of Champagne Lanson have been handed down from generation to generation. Since 1760, this has been the guiding philosophy of the successive generations that have promoted Lanson throughout the world.
Centuries in the dedicated pursuit of perfection have established the House of Lanson as one of the premier champagne makers. Today, the marriage of a contemporary dynamism with age-old tradition brings pleasure to millions the world over.
Champagne Lanson is one of the few houses in the Champagne region that chooses not to use malolactic fermentation. This decision guarantees the freshness and optimal development of the wines' flavours, allowing vintages to mature fully and evolve their complete array of aromas.
The dosage is a skilled act that has been improved and refined over the years. In the 19th Century, Demi-Sec was the pre-dominant champagne style.
