The 2013 Billecart-Salmon Louis Salmon Brut Blanc de Blancs is a mature Champagne made from Chardonnay, showing lemon, green apple and white peach with brioche, toasted almond, citrus peel and delicate floral notes.
On the palate, it is refined and finely textured, with vibrant acidity, fine bubbles and layers of citrus, orchard fruit and subtle pastry characters. Bottle age adds depth and complexity, leading to a long, dry and mineral-driven finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Champagne collectors seeking a mature Blanc de Blancs with freshness and developed complexity. Best enjoyed now or over the next 5–7 years. Serve chilled with oysters, scallop crudo, smoked trout blinis or butter-poached marron.
