Billecart-Salmon
Cuvée Nicolas-François Billecart - Brut 2002
Chardonnay
Description
Balance and maturity
This exceptional cuvée was created in 1964 as a
tribute to the House's founder. It results from the
blending of grands crus from the classified Côte des
Blancs vineyards (Chardonnay) and the Montagne
de Reims (Pinot Noir). Its vinification, partially in
traditional oak casks, underpins the generous
character of this fine, elegant and rich wine.

Tasting
Appearance: A lovely colour of sparkling yellow gold veiled in luminous golden reflections. This scintillating and crystal-like visual perception gives to the effervescence a rising of fine-cut bubbles.
Aroma: All the richness and subtlety of an aromatic curve enhances the maturity of the delicious fruit. Fine malted notes associated with orchard fruit (white peach, nectarine, Lorraine plum) refined by the purity of the complex mandarin zest aromas.
Palate: The balance of a tension controlled by the blossoming of the wine (seeded and stone fruit, citrus fruit, warm madeleine) and embodied by the line of noble resinous flavours (spruce and juniper berries from Houlle). A truly unique and personal character showing real vinosity.
Tasting: This generous and mineral vintage,
characterised by the elegant vinosity of a
complex and mature wine, should be served at
cellar temperature (11/12°C). It will expose the
flavours of a beautiful creamy, roasted poultry or
a delicious slice of milk-fed veal.
