Lanson in Reims by Private Chauffeur

A house dating from 1760 with a style of its own and, on some tours, the Clos Lanson, the last hectare of vines inside the walls of Reims. We book, and your chauffeur waits for you.

  • 2 hrtour and tasting
  • €32 (~$35 USD)entry-level tour, per person

The house

Founded in 1760, Lanson has a style you can recognize: its champagnes skip malolactic fermentation, a rare choice that keeps freshness and fruit and helps the cuvées age well.

It is the only major house in central Reims to offer a vine-to-glass experience: the Clos Lanson, one walled hectare of Chardonnay facing the cathedral, made into a single-plot cuvée.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Clos Lanson?

One walled hectare of vines in the heart of Reims, the last one inside the city walls, planted with Chardonnay facing the cathedral. It makes a rare single-plot cuvée, which you taste on The Vintage tour.

Is Lanson open on Sundays?

No, the house is closed on Sundays. For that day, we suggest Taittinger or Veuve Clicquot, both open on Sundays.

Is the tour price included?

No. Our price covers the chauffeur, the vehicle and the booking. The tour and tasting are paid at the house price, on top.

Can we see several houses in one day?

Yes. One or two houses fit into a half day (€300 (~$335 USD) by sedan), three plus lunch into a full day (€520 (~$580 USD) by sedan). The schedule follows the times the houses give us.

Do you pick up in Paris?

Yes. Our Champagne day trip from Paris picks you up at your Paris hotel and brings you back in the evening, with a 2-hour drive each way.

How do I pay?

By card (secure payment link) or by bank transfer, when you book. We do not accept cash. Invoices can be issued in your company’s name on request.

Which languages do your chauffeurs speak?
