Billecart-Salmon Brut Rosé Champagne
Pinot Noir
| Description: | The oldest continuously family-owned and operated house in Champagne, Billecart-Salmon has long been recognized as one of Champagne's greatest Rosé specialists. This dry Brut Rosé isn't merely a favored bottling for grand romantic gestures, this is quite serious wine featuring subtle and gourmet aromas – a true reference point among rosé Champagnes. Wilfred Wong: 96 Points "This could be my desert island wine, every time I have tasted the non-vintage Billecart-Salmon Rose, my palate tingles with unabashed excitement. This bubbly is so elegant and refined; bursts with aromas and flavors of wild strawberries; gentle yet crisp on the palate; active in the finish. Perfect with fresh salmon sashimi.". James Suckling : 94 Points "A gorgeous rosé Champagne with sliced strawberries, orange peel and hints of cream and pie crust. Medium body, tight and integrated tannins and a long and flavorful finish. Tangy acidity. The texture shows a fine bead and lightness. Long and intense.". 40% Chardonnay from Champagne's finest Cru vineyards, 30% Pinot Noir from Montagne de Reims and the Grande Vallée de la Marne, and 30% Pinot Meunier from the Vallée de la Marne and the southern slopes of Epernay. A staggering 40% of this blend is reserve wine! Aged on lees at least 36 months. With a pale yet radiant pink color adorned with warm glints of gold, this cuvée unveils subtle aromas leading to an elegant, delicate bouquet of fine notes of red berries and zest of citrus fruits. An ideal aperitif yet a lovely accompaniment to wild salmon or sushi. For dessert, Billecart-Salmon Brut Rosé brings a sublime touch to red fruit flavors. |
