Black - Création 257 is the new cuvée from Maison Lanson, replacing the Black Label cuvée. It bears this name because it represents the 257th blend of the House. “Each Création is a unique recipe, the opportunity to push the precision of our blends even further while remaining in keeping with the distinctive, fresh and elegant style of Maison Lanson,” explains Hervé Dantan, Cellar Master of Maison Lanson. This cuvée is the result of a harmonious marriage of the three main Champagne grape varieties, with a predominance of Pinot Noir (51%) for its structure, complemented by Chardonnay (36%) providing its freshness, and finally Meunier (13%) which adds fruity aromas. Maison Lanson stands out for its choice not to carry out malolactic fermentation. This process thus maximizes the freshness and liveliness of the champagnes, while increasing their aging potential. After aging for four years in the cellars of Maison Lanson, this brut champagne is dosed at 8 g/L, thus ensuring a beautiful balance. For its quality, Le Black - Création 257 from Maison Lanson has obtained several guide scores: 84 / 100 Richard Juhlin, 87 / 100 Parker, 16.5 / 20 Jancis Robinson, 90 / 100 Vinous, 2 stars Hachette, 14 / 20 Gault & Millau, 15 / 20 Le Point, 87 / 100 Revue du Vin de France, 92 / 100 Tyson Stelzer, 92 / 100 Decanter and 92 / 100 Bettane & Desseauve.

THE BRAND
Founded in 1760, Maison Lanson is one of the oldest Champagne Houses, a history they are proud of. This is a testament to their attachment to their family roots and values, preserved for over 260 years. However, the history of the Lanson Cross dates back to 1798, when the founder's son, a member of the Hospitaller Order of Malta, chose to adopt the Maltese Cross as the emblem of the House. Today, redesigned and present on each bottle, the Lanson Cross embodies their values of openness, kindness and hospitality, a symbol dear to their hearts. Over the centuries, the House has extended their reputation far beyond their original borders, offering champagnes that seduce palates around the world. Although firmly rooted in the House's historic lands, it is distinguished by its relentless desire to shine on an international scale, and today, their vintages are tasted in more than 85 countries around the globe. The philosophy of the Champagne house Lanson is manifested through authentic and lasting partnerships, based on shared values. As evidence, their emblematic collaborations: since 1900, Lanson has been the official champagne of the Royal Court of England. And since 1977, they are proud to be the official partners of the Wimbledon Tennis tournament. Locally, in Reims, the House partners each year with Domaine les Crayères for the highly anticipated Soirée Blanche, a tradition that Lanson holds dear.
