Lanson, Clos Lanson 2009

Lanson

Case Format: 3x75cl

The Clos Lanson vineyard dates back to the 18th century and is located in the heart of Reims. It is the only remaining vineyard within the city’s historic walls and was rejuvenated by the House in 2006, when the first single vineyard wine from the plot was produced. The Chardonnay vines planted here perfectly suit the chalky soils that they are biodynamically farmed upon. This truly is a special Blanc de Blancs which is tantamount to any prestige cuvées from the vintage. The 12 years the Champagne spent on its lees has provided remarkable texture and complexity, whilst the bright acidity ensures the palate is seamlessly balanced.

Georgina Hindle

A new addition to the Place de Bordeaux this year from the 1ha-walled Chardonnay vineyard in the centre of Reims. A gorgeous toasted buttery nose filled with hazelnuts, lemon rind, orange skin and acaia - all subtly combined but giving complexity and nuance. Instantly salivating on the palate, unctuous yet so delicate in terms of power and heaviness. Generous with a velvet sensation to the bubbles and a slightly chalky finish. Bright and lifted - a joyous combination of citrus - lemon and orange acidity, honeysuckle flowers and stone fruits, balanced by a touch of bitterness and a hint of salty minerality. Such complexity and overall enjoyment to be found here - utterly charming and confident at the same time. The flavours totally envelop the mouth yet the overall expression is finessed and elegant. Drink now (in a wine glass) to savour the fresh zestiness or cellar for decades. A limited production of 7,000 bottles. Aged 12 years on the lees. Disgorged May 2022. 3g/l dosage. The cooler 2008 vintage will be released after this.

The 2009 Clos Lanson, made from 100% Chardonnay with 3 g/l dosage and disgorged in May 2022, has a gorgeous perfume of lime blossoms, yuzu, and lemongrass, leading to suggestions of lemon tart, allspice, and crushed stones. The palate is elegantly styled, with medium-sized bubbles and a slight dip in the mid-palate, featuring subtle flavors and a lifted finish.
