Champagne Billecart-Salmon, Brut Réserve NV

Light, fine and harmonious, the Brut Réserve is a blend from three different years and sourced from the best sites in the Champagne region. The nose combines charming white and red fruits, whilst the palate is wonderfully fresh and forward, with some complex toasty notes from the lees aging. The champagnes of Maison Billecart-Salmon are revered around the world, and the majority of the grapes for the Brut Réserve come from a radius of 20km around Epernay, famed for its Grand Cru Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay. "Highly aromatic and delicate, the nose has lovely red and orchard fruits, whilst the palate is wonderfully fresh and elegant, with some stony minerality. A benchmark Brut from Billecart-Salmon" Our note
