Champagne Billecart-Salmon Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru NV
Tasting notes
The fine mousse of delicate bubbles elegantly accompanies the glints of its gold color. A cuvée that will surprise you with its pure intensity of dry fruits aromas, almonds and fresh hazelnuts mixed with those of fruits of white flesh. The creamy sensation of thebubble associated to aromas of buttered brioche and mineral aromas. Persistent finish with a fresh and elegant sweetness. This great bottle will make a perfect marriage with caviar or fine oysters but also with grilled fish and seafood.

Really attractive ripe and pure chardonnay sourced from the Côte de Blancs villages of Avize, Cramant, Chouilly and Mesnil-sur-Oger. This has bright ripe peaches and nectarines in addition to mangoes, lemons and – not to mention some background chalky aromas. The palate's a riot of fleshy and flavorsome chardonnay fruit with a helping of stone fruits and another of green mango flavors and deeper-set citrus zest. Seamless balance flows to the finish. Drink now. Superb! - James Suckling, 95 pts
