Billecart-Salmon Blanc de Blancs

$94.99

This Chardonnay cuvee has been elaborated from the five grand cru vineyards of the Cote des Blancs: Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, Mesnil-sur-Oger and Oger. It is a blend of two different years revealing the special quality of the Chardonnay.

TASTING NOTES

On the eye: An ultra-delicate effervescence which translates into an abundance of elegant bubbles. It is sparkling and elegant with a luminous yellow gold hue with glints of green.

On the nose: A very pure and mineral intensity with an uncommon typicity, releasing notes of brioche, fresh butter and lemony citrus fruits. A distinguished and subtle realm that delicately evolves with a remarkable finesse.

On the palate: A creamy sensation with a chalky and meringue texture, associated with nuances of fresh almonds and citron zest. A smoothness of great class which is chiseled and persistent.

PAIRING

An exceptional fermentation with a chalky, mineral style which wonderfully accompanies Ossetra caviar or fine marinated sashimi.
