Billecart Salmon Brut Reserve 75 cl

Voted the “Best Brut Champagne of the World” by the Decanter Famous Guide, Billecart-Salmon's House Brut reserve has a lot to live up to. Not that it finds this particularly troublesome; round and harmonious, it's a balanced assembly which has remained in similar form since 1945. Since the beginning it's comprised of Black Pinot, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier, all founded in the best terroirs of Marne. What more is there to say?

Billecart Salmon Brut Reserve is also one which remains true in its process and production: a tradition which involves the same care and attention as many years ago, where distilling wine is stored in optimum conditions – an extensive network of caves where the ideal temperature allows for just the right production of fine bubbles that we all know and love.

Once opened, expect the Brut Reserve to be pale straw-coloured, highlighted by slow rising bubbles and that trademark persistent mousse.

On the nose, you can look forward to a plethora of fresh bouquets with an edge of maturity. Aromas of ripe pear follow into a unforgettable palate where the attack is full and vinous, and not to mention fresh.
