Tasting notes

Clear golden yellow with an energetic bead. Pastry, citrus and orchard fruit with malty notes, opening towards mocha and bergamot. The palate recalls milk bread, melted butter and gentle spice, with a long, vinous finish.

About this wine

For Le Sous Bois, the family house Billecart-Salmon, founded in 1818 in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, ferments every wine entirely in oak casks at low temperature, a bold departure from its usual steel-fermented style.

The blend unites the three Champagne grapes: grand cru Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs, premier and grand cru Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims and Aÿ, and Pinot Meunier from both banks of the Marne, completed with reserve wines from a collection dating back to 2006. It ages five years on the lees and receives an extra brut dosage.

Rich, vinous and complex, it is a Champagne made for the table.
