Intense pale gold with a fine, persistent bead. The nose offers orchard fruit, nuts and citrus, opening to almond, fresh pineapple and exotic spice. The palate shows white and yellow fruit, mandarin and lemon, with firm structure and a long, precise finish.

About this wine

The Vintage Extra Brut is the millésime of Billecart-Salmon, the family house founded in 1818 in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ. It is made only in years that the family judges worthy, and the 2016 edition captures a harvest of fine balance and freshness.

The blend is 65% Pinot Noir from selected plots and 35% Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs. Made in extra brut style with minimal dosage, the champagne rests for eight to nine years on its lees in the house cellars, gaining depth while keeping a precise, chiselled profile.

The magnum format slows its evolution, making it a structured, age-worthy champagne ideal for sharing or long cellaring.
