Product Description
The 2007 Clos Lanson was disgorged in July of 2016, after more than eight years aging sur latte. This is the second iteration of this bottling to be released, made from a tiny parcel of vines right out behind the winery in the heart of Reims, with the inaugural vintage having been the 2006. The 2007 Clos Lanson was given a very modest dosage of three grams per liter and allowed an additional year of cellar aging to recover after its disgorgement prior to release into the market. The wine offers up a beautiful and very refined bouquet of apple, pear, fresh-baked bread, a lovely base of soil, discreet smokiness, almond and a gentle top note of white flowers. On the palate the wine is pure, focused, full-bodied and very refined in profile, with a lovely core, elegant mousse, excellent complexity and a long, zesty and beautifully balanced finish.
Only 7,990 bottles of Clos Lanson originated from the 2007 harvest.
