How to serve it
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.
The blend brings together 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, plus reserve wines from a collection begun in 2006. Five years on the lees and an extra brut dosage complete the picture.
In magnum, this rich, vinous Champagne gains even more depth, a superb choice for gastronomic dinners.
