Billecart-Salmon: Le Réserve Brut

The Cuvée

Billecart-Salmon | Brut

An evening with friends, full program outside with the kids, a few bites and a few glasses on the terrace.

Freshly baked mini brioche buns, topped with: Ham & horseradish, salmon with mustard-dill sauce, Camembert, wild garlic spread with shrimp, plus salmon & salmon caviar. Plus red beet, alfalfa & pea sprouts, for a finishing touch and fresh kick.

In the glass: Billecart-Salmon, Le Réserve Brut (Magnum).

A classic that always works. Fine bubbles, balanced fruit, elegance without effort. Easily enough for four adults, and a long, relaxed wind-down.

My Tastings

Tasting #01
Billecart-Salmon: Le Réserve Brut

Garden work and champagne, they go together better than you'd think. Aerating & sanding do go a bit easier when a fine champagne awaits in the background.

Billecart-Salmon, Le Réserve Brut. A classic with substance, fine bubbles, restrained elegance, with beautiful depth and freshness. Delicate stone fruit, some brioche, a touch of spice, nothing loud, nothing arbitrary. Simply well made.
