N.V. Billecart-Salmon Extra Brut

Media Reviews

Josh Raynolds

(45% pinot meunier, 40% pinot noir and 15% chardonnay, with no dosage) Pale yellow. Fresh pear, lemon rind and jasmine on the mineral-inflected nose. Spicy, penetrating and pure, offering zesty pear skin, blood orange and bitter quinine flavors complemented by deeper notes of melon and peach pit. Dry but distinctly fruity, finishing with strong thrust and mineral-driven persistence. 92 points
