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

Tenuta San Leonardo, Riserva Privata Trento DOC 2017

A vintage traditional-method sparkling wine from the San Leonardo estate in Trentino’s Adige Valley. In the glass, it’s all about clarity and cut — bright citrus and crisp green apple up front, with a faint herbal note that gives it real character. Time on the lees brings gentle layers of toasted bread, almond and a touch of brioche, but it never feels heavy. The palate is dry, taut and confidently structured, driven by firm acidity and a fine, persistent bead, finishing long and savoury with a lovely mineral edge. Produced under the Trento DOC appellation, the base wine is fermented in stainless steel and kept on its lees for six months with regular bâtonnage to build texture and structure. It then undergoes second fermentation in bottle and is aged for a minimum of 60 months before disgorgement, giving the wine depth and fine, persistent mousse.
