Lanson Vintage Collection 150cl 1979

The marriage of the finest grapes from a single year, this is the epitome of true craftsmanship. A small number of bottles dating back to 1979 have been produced and we were fortunate to procure the 14 magnums made available to the UK. A truly limited opportunity.

The Champagne terroir has two major distinguishing features: northerly latitude and a dual climate that is subject to oceanic and continental influences alike. The subsoil in Champagne is predominantly limestone. This type of subsoil provides good drainage and also imparts that particular mineral flavour found in certain Champagne wines.
