Champagne Charles le Bel Inspiration 1818 Brut NV
Tasting notes
Sparkling and crystalline with fine and plentiful bubbles. Aroma: A blooming nose with harmonious notes of butter, white flesh fruits as well as Mirabelle plums and dried fruits. Palate: A well balanced mouth, structured thanks to the greatness of the Pinots Noirs, with flavours of white flesh fruits. The Chardonnays bring to this wine a refreshing finish with notes ofcitrus fruits and pepper.
Production notes
Every year, Billecart-Salmon vinifies base wines from a greater number of parcels than it actually needs for the production of its main cuvees. The tasting committee tastes each of these base wines and selects only the ones that match the standard and the style of Billecart-Salmon. Some of the wines that are not selected are bottled to be part of a second wine from the house, Inspiration 1818.
The grapes come from vineyards with younger vines. The entire operation, including the degorgement and dosage take place in the Billecart-Salmon cellars. This is an absolute guarantee of originality and character. 37% Chardonnay 33% Pinot Noir 30% Pinot Meunier (Reserve wine 70%)
