A crunchy and rich Champagne with flavors of cooked apple, light caramel, nuts and cedar, as well as orange zest. The bubbles are creamy and round with a long, energetic finish. Tangy. Base wine fermented in barrels. 48% pinot noir, 32% chardonnay and 20% pinot meunier. 74% 2016 and 26% reserve wine, including the oldest wine from 2006. Disgorged in 2022. Dosage 2g/L.

The NV Extra Brut Sous Bois (base 2016) is one of the more immediate wines in this range from Billecart-Salmon. Fermentation and aging in oak adds curves to this layered, open-knit Champagne. The Sous Bois is not the most complex wine at Billecart-Salmon, but its sheer appeal and allure can't be denied. In this tasting, it is absolutely delicious. This release is based on 2016, with 26% reserve wines back to 2006. Dosage is 2 grams per liter. Disgorged: fourth trimester 2022.

Based on the 2016 vintage with 26% reserve wines from eight different vintages, Billecart-Salmon's NV Brut Sous Bois exhales a delicate, toasty bouquet of mirabelle, tangerine, white fruits, ripe orchard fruits and baked bread, mingled with delicate notes of vanilla pod. Medium to full-bodied, round and creamy, it's perfectly balanced with a vinous, fleshy core of fruit and a delicately toasty finish complemented with gastronomic bitterness. This blend of 48% Pinot Noir, 32% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Meunier was disgorged with two grams per liter of dosage.

With 40% of older reserve wines in the blend, this Champagne was fermented in wood. Its aroma brings out toastiness, while on the palate, the richness of the wine suggests maturity. It is a finely balanced wine, ready to drink now.

Fragrant, with hints of graphite, cherry blossoms and spices, revealing a firm frame of vivid acidity that's tightly meshed with flavors of blackberry tart, lemon granita and salted Marcona almond. Shows a raw silk–textured mousse that carries a chalky note on the finish. Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay. Disgorged spring 2022.
