Billecart-Salmon Cuvee Louis Salmon Brut 2013

Billecart-Salmon Cuvée Louis Salmon Brut 2013 is a refined, terroir-driven Blanc de Blancs Champagne made entirely from Chardonnay, offering precision, elegance, and remarkable freshness. Crafted from a single vintage in a challenging but exceptional year, it reflects both the house’s pursuit of finesse and the distinctive character of Champagne’s chalk-rich vineyards.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a pale golden hue with fine, persistent bubbles. The nose opens with citrus zest, white flowers, green apple, and subtle notes of toasted almond, pastry, and chalky minerality. The palate is taut and polished, balancing bright acidity with layered texture and a long, saline finish. Expect lemon curd, pear, brioche, and flinty mineral notes, with the vintage structure suggesting excellent aging potential over the coming years.

Production
This Champagne is built on Chardonnay sourced from carefully selected vineyard parcels in Champagne, where cool-climate conditions and chalk soils help preserve freshness and purity. The grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness, then vinified with great care to protect aromatic precision and texture, with the wine aged on its lees to develop depth and complexity.

Food & Serving
Serve chilled at around 8–10°C to preserve its lift and fine mousse. It pairs beautifully with oysters, scallops, caviar, lobster, poultry in delicate cream sauces, or elegant hard cheeses; decanting is not typically recommended, though a short rest in the glass can help the wine open gradually.

Producer
