Very pale, yellow gold with a fine, pearly mousse, the Billecart-Salmon Blanc de Blanc Grand Cru Brut NV is based on the 2016 vintage and includes 32% of reserve wines in the blend. 100% cold fermented in stainless steel, it aged 5 years on fine lees and was disgorged during the third quarter of 2022. Opening with fresh and subtle notes of Spartan apple, quince, lemon balm and chalk, the light-bodied, citrusy palate offers delicate crisp apple, razor-sharp mineral intensity and bright, finely knit acidity that carries through a long, refreshing finish. The label indicates Brut, however this bottling was finished Extra Brut with a 3.9 gram per liter dosage. - Sarah Mayo
