LANSON "BLACK LABEL" BRUT CHAMPAGNE (1.5 ML)

LANSON "BLACK LABEL" BRUT CHAMPAGNE, FRANCE (1.5 ML). 50% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 15% Pinot Meunier.

91 points Wine Spectator: "Firm and minerally, with a smoky undertow and well-meshed flavors of toasted walnut, pear tart, lemon meringue and fleur de sel riding the creamy mousse. Best from 2017 through 2020." (AN, 03/2016)

90 points Vinous Media: "Light gold. Aromas of nectarine, pear and lemon curd, with subtle ginger, lees and floral accents. Sappy orchard and citrus fruit flavors are given spine by tangy acidity and pick up spiciness and a chalky nuance with air. Powerful yet lithe and focused, finishing with very good clarity and length and lingering spiciness." (JR, 01/2015)

90 points Wine Enthusiast: *Editors' Choice* "Like most Lanson wines, this nonvintage cuvée is a blend dominated by red grapes (Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier). Ripe while also crisp and stylish, it has weight and richness while remaining well to the dry side of Brut. The bottling is ready to drink." (RV, 12/2015)
