257 Years

Hold out your glasses Cream customers as we are now serving you 257 years of Champagne history and expertise!

Founded 16 years before our very own country, Champagne Lanson is one of the oldest, family-run Champagne houses. Over the years, the winemakers behind this famous label have carefully perfected their art, passing down the secrets of their craft from one generation to the next. Today’s owners, Philippe Baijot with his son Enguerrand Baijot (Sales Director), have invested in Lanson’s infrastructure while adhering to the unique history and style of the house. The quality has never been better.

AGAVE WEEK: April 10th - 13th

Some how, some way, we’ve managed to convince most of our agave book to come to Chicago, together, during the same week. Get ready for the agave invasion! Click the heading to find out about the events!

Conca State of Mind

15 years ago we started a partnership with the Raventós family. Cava was just cava back then: a Spanish sparkling wine defined by method, production and marketing instead of place, farming and grape varieties. Three years ago, visionary Pepe Raventós sought to change this conversation by leaving the Cava DO. Conca is where his family’s estate is located. Conca is where his family’s vineyards are located. Conca is in Pepe’s past, present and future. Conca is a state of mind and resistance to convention.

Yann Vadin is the new face of grower champagne.

Yann Vadin is relatively unknown. While his family has owned their estate since 1785, they have only recently started exporting their wines outside of France. A chance encounter at the champagne fair Des Pieds et Des Vins earlier this year in France introduced us to Yann and the wines of Champagne Vadin-Plateau. The wines are simply stunning natural expressions with fierce minerality and brilliant freshness. It is only a matter of time before Champagne Vadin-Plateau is revered as one of the top grower champagnes.
