Visual
Crystal clear pale gold colour with delicate glints marked by a nuanced patina of yellow and green. A persistent and fascinating effervescence, brimming with light.
Palate
A creamy sensation in the mouth with a beautifully chiselled finesse. Lovely refreshing balance with natural flavours (zest of citron, almond biscuit and white pepper). This powerful wine with a majestic typicity prolongs its finish towards an aromatic persistence of incredible length (flesh of sweet citrus fruits, cardamom and vanilla-flavoured cream puffs).
Nose
The first expression is marked by an elegant, perfect and complex maturity, yellow and citrus fruits (candied mandarin, limoncello, Conference pear). An aromatic profile of sophisticated purity and a chalky, balanced and crystalline character (cedar and raw butter).
Winemaking
The winemaking of Billecart-Salmon Cuvée Louis Salmon champagne seeks a balance between freshness and complexity. Approximately 25% of the wine is vinified in oak barrels, the rest in stainless steel tanks, to preserve the clarity of the Chardonnay aromas. The low dosage, 3.9 g/l, offers a dry and elegant style. Maturation on the lees lasts 115 months in the house's cellars, giving the finesse of the bubbles and subtle notes of brioche, almonds and white fruits.
This cuvée was named in tribute to Louis, Elisabeth Salmon’s brother, who was passionate about oenology and highly involved in winemaking from the earliest creation of the House. Originating from the best parcels of the Côte des Blancs, the Blanc de Blancs vintage is endowed with purity and minerality.
