About the Billecart-Salmon Elisabeth Salmon Brut Rose 2012 1.5L Magnum
Billecart-Salmon Elisabeth Salmon Brut Rosé 2012 is a prestigious, highly expressive prestige cuvée Champagne created in 1988 as a tribute to the house co-founder Elisabeth Salmon. Sourced from Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards across the Montagne de Reims and Côte des Blancs, it comprises 55% Chardonnay and 45% Pinot Noir (including a small percentage of still red wine from Mareuil-sur-Aÿ). In the glass, it displays a radiant copper-salmon hue, lifting with complex aromatics of wild strawberries, redcurrants, pink grapefruit, and orange blossom balanced by notes of gingerbread, warm brioche, and sweet spices. On the palate, it exhibits a silky, vinous density, structured fine bubbles, and a vibrant core of red fruit underpinned by a mouthwatering chalky mineral precision that carries into a long, mouthwatering finish.
Food Pairing: Pairs brilliantly with wild salmon, seared duck breast, roasted lobster, poultry with berry sauce, or a light berry tart.
This has a lovely copper color with aromas of cloves, spiced apples, raspberries, gingerbread and pastries. Delicious yeasty and spicy undertones. Excellent density and focus, with fine and firm bubbles, yet it’s light on its feet and so fresh. Long, chalky and salty at the end. Chardonnay and pinot noir. 3.8g/L dosage. Drink or hold.
First produced in 1988 and made only in top years, this Champagne is named after the producer’s founder. With age (more than nine years on lees), it has developed a patina of toastiness and roundness. There is a toasty character that chimes with this fine wine’s crisp texture.
Sleek and elegant, with a seamless knit, this is finely textured, with the raw silk–like mousse carrying flavors of peach skin, white cherry and toast point that show hints of white blossoms, pickled ginger and oyster shell through the lasting finish.
