LANSON NOBLE CUVEE BRUT CHAMPAGNE 2002 750ml

PLENITUDE & EXCELLENCE

Since 1760, the Maison Lanson has been committed to offering exceptional Champagnes. Created in 1979, the Noble Cuvée is the fruit of this passion. Only 14 vintages were chosen to make the Noble Cuvée Brut. It is an audacious creation allowing the wines to be sublimated by time.
The fine and elegant style of the Noble Cuvée Brut is the result of a unique savoir-faire based on the Exclusive choice of Grands Crus, and a Majority of Chardonnay in the blends to combine finesse and complexity.

TASTING NOTE:

Year 2002: After a mild, sunny and damp winter, the spring of 2002 was hot and dry. The vines benefited from a rare phenomenon of concentration, resulting in rich, very healthy and perfectly ripe grapes.
To the eye the Noble Cuvée presents a light gold colour animated by very fine bubbles and a very persistent line of foam. Aromas of preserved citrus and white flowers develop alongside roasting and mineral notes. In the mouth the attack is dense and fresh, opening with complex flavours that evoke citrus, pear, spices and honey with a touch of minerality.
