Billecart-Salmon Brut Blanc de Blancs, Côte des Blancs, Champagne - 750ml

Billecart-Salmon Blanc de Blancs Brut is a Chardonnay-focused expression of the house’s precise, elegant Champagne style. Sourced from Grand Cru villages in the Côte des Blancs, including Avize, Chouilly, Cramant and Mesnil-sur-Oger, it captures the chalky freshness and finely etched character for which this part of Champagne is celebrated. Extended cellar aging brings subtle richness and complexity while preserving the wine’s lively citrus fruit and mineral definition.

Blend: 100% Chardonnay.

Tasting Notes: Fresh lemon, green apple and white peach are joined by delicate acacia blossom, toasted almond and a hint of brioche. The palate is focused and finely textured, with bright citrus, crisp orchard fruit and a refined, persistent mousse. Chalky mineral notes and a subtle saline edge lend precision to the long, refreshing finish.

Structure: Light to medium-bodied, with vibrant acidity, delicate bubbles and a finely balanced texture. Chardonnay’s natural freshness is complemented by gentle lees-derived richness, creating a Champagne that is both energetic and composed.

Drink Window: Enjoy now, ideally within 4–7 years of purchase. Already expressive for its citrus fruit and mineral freshness, the wine can develop additional toasted and nutty complexity with careful cellaring.

Serving: Serve around 48–52°F in a tulip-shaped Champagne or white Burgundy glass. Allow a few minutes after pouring for its delicate floral notes, subtle pastry character and mineral detail to emerge.

Billecart-Salmon Blanc de Blancs Brut is an appealing choice for Champagne enthusiasts who value precision, freshness and the distinctive character of Côte des Blancs Chardonnay. Equally rewarding as a refined aperitif or at the dinner table, it pairs beautifully with oysters, scallops, crab, delicate white fish and aged Comté, making it a thoughtful bottle for entertaining or gifting.
