[SOLD-OUT] Billecart Salmon Brut N.V. Sous Bois

Huon Hooke 95 Points!
"Rich and pinoty with smoky charcuterie, spice and almond aromas, some strawberry on palate. Soft and round; a magic wine. Food: Smoked salmon with capers."
Huon Hooke, March 2012

"This Champagne harks back to the traditional way in which Champagne was vinified and aged in oak barrels ('sous bois' being French for 'under oak'), imparting texture, toastiness and depth of flavour that outclasses all other NV Champagnes at this price point. Rich with flavours of brioche, dried fruits, toffee, and vanilla, this is creamy and with hints of spice coming from its engagement with wood. This is a remarkable achievement from Billecart, an absolute MUST-TRY for any Champagne enthusiast, or someone after that special celebratory bottle."
Wine House

"A radiant yellow crystalline appearance with golden glints brought to life by a luminous bead of persistent fine bubbles.There is an olfactory impact due to the richness of harmonious expressions (dry fruits, fresh citrus and white fruits) coupled with finely buttered seductive notes. A defined aromatic undertone which expresses the mature complexity linked to the vinification in oak barrels.The caressing and refreshing texture enhances the creamy sensation, dominated by a beautiful bracing vivacity. A burst of flavours (notes of grilled brioche, toffee) thanks to the distinguished power and maturity which is a mark of the great wines of Champagne."
