Sleek acidity firms this tightly meshed 2007, a racy frame for flavors of crème de cassis, toast, ground ginger and candied lemon zest. Long and minerally on the finish. Drink now through 2027.

Billecart-Salmon's intense and vinous 2007 Vintage blends 75% Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims and the Grande Vallée de la Marne (Mareuil-sur-Aÿ and Aÿ) with 25% Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs villages Avize, Cramant, Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger, Chouilly and Vertus. Vinified in stainless steel, the bouquet indicates pure, ripe and refined fruit with delicate brioche and morel scents as well as fine chalky and super discreet marzipan and nougat notes. Full-bodied and very intense in its fruit flavors, this is a rich, persistent, pure, just ripe and refined 2007 with a finish that is remarkably fresh but not fully round. Disgorged as Extra Brut in December 2017, tasted in November 2018.
Producer
Billecart Salmon
Independently run since 1818, the Billecart-Salmon Champagne House is one of the few in the region that has remained family-owned since the beginning. The maison sits in the heart of Champagne, tucked away in a small village called Mareuil-sur-Aÿ. Today, the Billecart family’s founding objective, to create wines with finesse, balance and elegance has continued with François and Antoine Roland-Billecart, representing the sixth generation. François Domi, the head oenologist, works alongside the brothers to follow the traditional Methode Champenoise that has been used for over two centuries. The Brut Réserve is a blend of three vintages and represents the estate’s superior quality in an intense and refined Champagne, with a sizable proportion of Chardonnay.
