Billecart Salmon Cuvee Elisabeth Brut Rose 2008 1.5L

Created in 1988 as a tribute to Elisabeth Salmon, one of the Houses founders, this cuve is set apart by its radiance, refined purity as well as unique character. It embodies with subtlety the signature of the top Pinot Noir and Chardonnay terroirs. Allowing time to play its role is behind the grandeur of this vintage cuve.

On the eye: A luminous visual presence with soft shimmering coppery reflections and a deep salmon pink hue.

On the nose: A refreshing and sensual sensory expression of citrus peels and red berry jelly, with the exquisite sensation of a rich and complex aromatic amplitude (Plougastel strawberry, Mara des Bois and vine peach). Beautifully refined and mature olfactory notes, releasing a distinctive perfume of scented soft spices and wild rasberry pulp.

On the palate: Harmonious blossoming of gourmet flavors (tangerine, blood orange and Reinette apple tart). A fullbodied and layered mouthfeel, evolving towards a chalky edge and a lingering finish of citron zest and red and white currants.
