Billecart Premier Cru Sous Bois NV

750 ml

This unique cuvée, which is entirely vinified in oak, is composed of the three Champenois grape varieties. It totally masters the art of blending by renewing the ancestral spirit and savoir-faire of the original champagnes.

Everything about this wine is distinctive. It’s a champagne that seduces. It’s made from the three champenois grape varieties in equal proportions and is vinified in oak, which bestows upon it a beautiful balance and a great elegance between the finesse of the bubbles and the strength of its character. The Brut Sous Bois cuvée can be paired with very different dishes, which includes langoustines, white meats or a slowly cooked veal shank covered with thin strips of ceps. This champagne is the guarantee of a terrific marriage between the character and the finesse. Personally, I pair the cuisine with the wine to allow it to express itself. Crustaceans, either cooked or uncooked, just cooked cockles or even a mussel risotto, cuttlefish and a saffron flavoured broth unveil the full potential of this cuvée. For me the Brut Sous Bois is like an epicurean tale which is to be enjoyed at the end of the afternoon, on the terrace at Apicius for example, or even with a good cigar. I always associate this champagne with an absolute moment of pleasure or a moment of happiness, both precious and precise.
