About this Item

Gold Label Brut Vintage 1999
5 (1 x 5) 750ml
Champagne Lanson, founded in Reims in 1760, is one of the region's oldest houses, known for a crisp, vibrant style built on blocking malolactic fermentation to preserve freshness and ageing potential. Its Gold Label is the house's vintage cuvée, made only in declared years. 1999 was a ripe, generous Champagne vintage. Jancis Robinson MW gave it 16 out of 20.

Provenance

The late David Brice was a respected wine connoisseur, collector and co-founder of Brice and Burnett – The Fine Wine Specialists (formerly Wine Cellar). His lifelong passion for wine from all corners of the world wine, and generosity, helped develop a culture of fine wine in South Africa and beyond. Always with value and authenticity in mind, the collection spans a wide range of styles from leading producers and diverse regions. The wines were professionally imported under refrigeration and carefully stored at Brice and Burnett (formerly Wine Cellar) thereafter. Many of the producers are not available in South Africa and provide an excellent buying opportunity.

For more detailed information on the lots, please feel free to contact Roland Peens (roland@briceandburnett.co.za). Roland spent many years sharing and enjoying these wines with David Brice and is happy to provide further insight into the collection.

Critics Ratings

"Light nose with a hint of sweetness. Reasonably well married though the fruit is not razor-sharp fresh." - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16/20 (Mar 2010)
