A true delight for champagne enthusiasts, Lanson Noble Cuvée Blanc de Blancs 2000 perfectly combines the character of Chardonnay with the classic style of Lanson. Honouring the generations that gave the House its name, this champagne is a divine aperitif or complement to shellfish and fish.

100% Chardonnay. The blend is made of wines from some of the most prestigious villages, including Avize, Cramant, Chouilly, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger

Vintage 2004

A great example of how large yields do not necessarily mean poor quality in Champagne. As a reaction to the previous year's low yields, the vines produced one of the largest crops on record. The growing season proceeded without major difficulties but the bumper crop called for bud thinning. August brought about cooler weather and some rains, increasing the risk of rot. The massive crop, averaging 13,990 kg/ha, was picked from September 18th onwards. The quality was a pleasant surprise; vibrant wines with appropriate intensity, refined charm and refreshing lightness. This vintage impresses me more and more, and I feel tempted to give it the full five stars. It comes with a rare balance of freshness, lightness, yet fine aromatic intensity. Post-release, this vintage has proven to be slow to age, and elegant wines are likely to keep on ageing gracefully. Dom Pérignon and Louis Roederer Cristal both excelled.

Written Notes

A providential vintage, fruit of a contrasted and generous year, 2004 reinterprets the unique character of the seasons. The summer season of the 2004 viticultural year came with a grey and veiled sky where light and heat were scarce. The month of September was salutary and created a masterpiece.

A crystalline gold colour enhanced with delicate green reflections. A charming bouquet of great purity. The delicacy of acacia flowers and lime tree notes interlace with a delicious mix of fruits and candied citrus. Delicacies of our childhood come to mind with bites of honey or hazelnut biscuits and fresh almond puff pastries. A palate that gracefully bonds fluidity and tension. The dazzling aromatic around notes of candied lemon, almond and biscuit, blending into an intense freshness with a long, saline and zesty finish.
