The Story
The Extra Age range was created by chief winemaker Jean-Paul Gandon to celebrate Champagne Lanson’s 250th anniversary. It epitomises the traditionally fresh style maintained by classic Lanson champagnes since 1760. Each cuvée is a blend of three exceptional vintages from the most highly regarded Grand and Premier Cru vineyards.
Extra Age Brut NV is a tri-vintage blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Works wonderfully with scallops, truffles and game.
