Billecart-Salmon Les Rendez Vous No. 7

$124.99

Generous and elegant This seventh Rendez-Vous is all about the Meunier grape variety from the Venteuil terroir on the right bank of Vallée de la Marne. Its sunny exposure and its predominantly clay soil offer this wine a fine maturity. Made on the base of the 2018 vintage, it benefits from a long ageing on lees for 63 months. Meticulous selection, focusing on the purity of the fruit and the balance of flavors, always with a low dosage.

TASTING NOTES

On the eye: A luminous straw yellow hue with soft glints of silver enlivened by a fine effervescence elegantly focused towards the center of the glass.

On the nose: The champagne releases a refined floral bouquet (of linden and sweet vernal grass) in league with subtle scents of lemony citrus. It will awaken your senses, ranging from stone fruit (plum) to a suspicion of fruit cake. A very delicate ensemble in which the expression of the Meunier subtly unveils its charms.

On the palate: Generous, delicious flavors, borne upon infused fruits (cherries in syrup, fresh pear, pomegranate), developing towards a vibrant finish with tart saline inflexions.
