h3>A centuries-old heritage dedicated to excellenceSince 1760, Maison Lanson has cultivated the delicate art of vintage Champagne. Its savoir-faire rests on three pillars: the demanding selection of Grands and Premiers Crus, traditional winemaking without malolactic fermentation to preserve freshness and longevity, and extended ageing in the Reims cellars. This singular signature has shaped a style renowned for purity and elegance. Today, Lanson elevates this heritage by opening its cellars to true enthusiasts.

Fifteen metres underground, in a once-unused 100-metre gallery, Lanson offers the unique opportunity to build a private cellar. Up to 300 bottles, chosen from mature vintages, current releases, or en primeur wines, are stored in ideal conditions. Beyond preservation, each collector creates a true patrimony, guided by Cellar Master Hervé Dantan and his dedicated oenological team.

A rare privilege for insiders
