Winemaker Notes
Billecart-Salmon's 2013 Vintage Champagne is dosed as Extra-Brut. The great Pinot Noirs dominate and are tempered by the elegance of Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs, with a touch of Pinot Meunier for the signature.
After spending 9 years in the cellar, this champagne reveals itself to be intense and seductive, with intense aromas of hazelnuts and pomelos on the nose. On the palate, it is tense and charming with a slow and creamy foam. The finish is persistent.
Billecart-Salmon's 2013 Vintage Champagne, with its noble character and distinction, will be perfect with a ceviche of sea bream, a carpaccio of scallops or vegetable ravioli.
You can keep this sublime vintage for 8 to 10 years.
94 Points, Wine SpectatorA vibrant Champagne, finely balanced and lacy in texture, serving as an elegant canvas for layered flavors of yellow peach, chopped almond, cherry, toast point and preserved lemon. Minerally smoke, chalk and spice notes play on the finish. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Disgorged November 2021. Drink now through 2030.
