Terroirs
Respect for the terroir is a primary concern for Maison Lanson, which is committed to a more sustainable viticulture, favoring the balance of soil, plants and people. This commitment is reflected in both its own vineyard and those of its partner growers, who are equally driven by a constant quest for quality and a love of terroir.
In addition to its Haute Valeur Environnementale-certified vineyards, since 2010 Maison Lanson has owned one of the largest organically-grown vineyards in Champagne: Domaine de la Malmaison, located in the heart of the Marne Valley. Based on observation of the vines and the climate, it is cultivated using organic methods that respect the fauna, flora, soils and people. The estate is a life-size laboratory for biodiversity and vine health. It demands meticulous care by the hand of man, who links practices handed down for generations with the most precise techniques, the fruit of a constant quest for innovation. The Domaine de la Malmaison team is on a human scale, driven by a love of nature and a job well done. They work in symbiosis with a demanding environment that demands precision, care and patience.
In addition to owning a sixteen-hectare vineyard that is farmed biodynamically, Maison Lanson is committed to sustainable viticulture both for its own vineyard and for its supplies by supporting
its par tner growers in their transition towards certified viticulture through the founding of the first collective structure by a Champagne house, in 2018. In accordance with the requirements defined by the Champagne interprofession and the Ministry of Agriculture, which certify the Viticulture Durable en Champagne (Sustainable Viticulture in Champagne – VDC) and Haute Valeur Environnementale (High Environmental Value – HVE) labels, Maison Lanson is forging a path of support based on exchange, sharing and the commitment of each person towards virtuous practices that are mindful of biodiversity and societal and environmental standards.
Aware of climate issues and keen to reduce its carbon footprint, Maison Lanson carried out its first carbon assessment in 2022, with a view to optimizing resources. To take more global action against climate change, the same year the House joined International Wineries for Climate Action, a joint international programme whose aim is to reduce the carbon footprint of the wine industry by sharing best practices and drawing up an international action plan. Lanson was the first Champagne House to join the IWCA, among the forty or so members around the world.

Committed to transparency and fairness, Maison Lanson makes eco-design and local sourcing a priority for the production of its bottles and packaging.
Sustainable development is a source of creativity for our teams, who have been committed to eco-design for the past ten years. This commitment has led to the use of mainly lightweight, tinted bottles produced in France, the development of single-material packs such as our Clos Lanson box, the elimination of superfluous packaging and the use of 100% recyclable, FSC-certified packaging produced in Champagne.
Maison Lanson favors local sourcing of its packaging in order to promote the local economy and reduce the carbon impact of transport. Thus, 79% of its packaging is produced in Champagne, 10% in France and 11% in Europe.
