Blended from pinot meunier, pinot noir and chardonnay to a recipe barely touched since 1945, it pours a fine, persistent mousse over soft yellow stone fruit, strawberry and citrus, layered on a biscuity, autolytic core. It shows real depth and precision without losing any of its freshness, finishing long and dry. Billecart-Salmon remains one of the last family-owned houses in Champagne, and this is the kind of bottle that looks as good arriving as it tastes once poured.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the winery says:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBillecart-Salmon's Brut Réserve blend has remained largely unchanged since 1945, built from pinot meunier, pinot noir and chardonnay sourced across the house's Champagne holdings. The style is fresh and vibrant, opening with bready, biscuit-like autolysis notes alongside floral lift, a touch of pear and soft red fruit, with a creamy, generously textured palate and a warm, toasty finish. This giftbox edition contains the same Brut Réserve inside presentation packaging, ready to give without wrapping.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the experts say:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCameron Douglas MS, 95\/100 (NV)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e“This is a complete wine with a wonderful aroma package including soft fragrances of yellow stone fruits, citrus, strawberry and delicate spice.
