Since 1760, our Cellar Masters have been perpetuating traditional Champagne methods, enriched with innovative approaches to preserve the Lanson style.
"Each year, my role is to play with freshness, enhancing it according to what nature offers us."
Hervé Dantan, Cellar Master
A unique palette of supply
Our vineyards cover 430 hectares, including 60 hectares of our own and 16 hectares of organic and biodynamic viticulture, with access to the best parcels from among a hundred or so Crus, half of which are Grand and Premier Crus.
HIGH-PROFILE INDUSTRIAL TOOLS
In order to take the precision and quality of our blends even further, Maison Lanson has redesigned its production facilities. We have four in-House presses close to the vines, a single-plot cuverie to preserve the intrinsic qualities of each Cru, and a “Chai bois” to enhance our reserve wines. This combination of tradition and modernity, combined with the talent of our Cellar Master, produces wines of exceptional richness.
Freshness at the heart of the Lanson style
The aromatic signature of the Maison Lanson is first and foremost the fruit of a savoir-faire based on four major pillars: the meticulous selection of Crus, a traditional vinification method mainly without malolactic transformation, the richness of our reserve wines and a longer ageing time in our Cellars. As a result, Lanson Champagnes stand out for their vitality, fruitiness and inimitable freshness.
Hidden treasures in the cellar
The Lanson Cellars guarded a priceless treasure: a collection of old Vintages dating back to 1904,, which are living proof of the Maison’s history and savoir-faire. The fruit of an equally precious heritage, they form a matrix of 200 000 Vintages spanning the centuries.
