Le Black-Creation is a signature bottling from Lanson, with a fresh and elegant character.
2017 is a perfect illustration of the uniqueness of each harvest. After a winter and spring marked by record high temperatures came the shock of intense frost from 16 to 21 April, which damaged the vines. This was followed by a warm and sunny summer that ended in torrential downpours and hailstorms.
The harvests took place between 29 August and 11 September 2017. These conditions benefited the Chardonnays with an unusual elegance and freshness. The Pinots Noirs revealed an intense fruity character, while the Pinots Meuniers from the Vallée de la Marne boasted generosity and suppleness.
75cl at 12.5% alc/vol.
TASTING NOTES
Tangy fruit on the nose along with apple, pear and freshly baked pastries. This then leads to generous notes of ripe orchard fruit on the palate, alongside notes of mandarin, lemon and grapefruit.
Serving Suggestions
Best served between 6-8°C. Try pairing this Champagne with food - a mushroom ravioli with parmesan shavings or salmon fish & chips with sweet potato fries.
