Champagne Le Black Création 258 by Lanson is a classic method brut sparkling wine that stands out for its complexity and balance. This champagne is a tribute to the long history of the Maison Lanson, founded in 1760, and the number “257” represents the years that have passed since its foundation. The blending of this champagne is a key element of its quality, with a predominance of Pinot Noir that provides structure and notes of red fruits, Chardonnay that provides elegance and freshness, and Pinot Meunier that adds roundness and fruity notes. The precise composition varies, but is around 51% Pinot Noir, 36% Chardonnay and 13% Pinot Meunier. The inclusion of reserve wines from different vintages contributes to the complexity of the aromatic profile. The winemaking follows the champenoise method, with a second fermentation in the bottle and an aging on the lees for about 4 years. Malolactic fermentation is not performed to preserve the freshness and acidity of the wine. The dosage is brut, with a low sugar content.

The result is a champagne with a bright straw yellow color, with a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, intense and complex notes of white and red fruits, citrus fruits, white flowers, brioche bread and yeast are perceived. In the mouth, the wine is balanced and harmonious, with good acidity, an elegant structure and a long and persistent finish. Lanson’s Champagne Le Black Création 258 is ideal as an aperitif and pairs perfectly with seafood, shellfish, fish, white meats and fresh cheeses.
