Billecart-Salmon Extra Brut Vintage 2016
An ideal blend allowing the personality of the Champagne region’s great Pinot Noirs to dominate, combined with the elegance and subtlety of Chardonnays.
The 2016 vintage undergoes a meticulous aging process on lees for a duration of 5 years. This exceptional blend comprises 66% Pinot Noir and 34% Chardonnay sourced exclusively from esteemed Grand Cru vineyards, ensuring unparalleled quality. A quarter of the wine is gracefully matured in oak barrels, imparting depth and complexity to the final composition. Bottled with a dosage of just 1.9g/L, it showcases a refined balance of flavors and textures, epitomizing the pinnacle of craftsmanship.
Enjoy with bream ceviche and kalamansi condiment or a high-end Pata Negra ham aged 36/48 months.
Deliciously fruity intensity with elegant notes of nuts and stone fruits (greengage and crunchy cherries). Prolonged and nuanced development of exquisite notes of baked goods (crepe dough and puffed cereals). A superlative aroma, with a refreshing and sophisticated purity.
A charming mouthfeel with notes of fresh pineapple and sudachi zest, amplified by a creamy and delicate texture. A persistent finish with a chiseled structure.
