SKU
FRCHBSEB08B
Billecart-Salmon's 2009 is a triumph. Bottled as an Extra Brut with only 4 grams/litre of sugar and made from 65% Pinot Noir from Montagne de Reims and 35% Chardonnay from Cote des Blancs. The wine has spent 9 years on its lees, gaining complexity and mouthfeel. Although wonderful now, this has the capacity to age for another 10 years or beyond
The Producer
Champagne Billecart-Salmon
Champagne Billecart-Salmon dates back to 1818. It is a small Champagne house with a focus on producing harmonious Champagnes from around 300 hectares of vines. The greatest claim to fame of Billecart is the 'Champagne of the Millennium' tasting which took place in 1999. A panel of expert tasters organised by writer and established Champagne guru Richard Jurlin voted Billecart's 1959 the overall winner. Not just that, their 1961 came 2nd.
