Billecart Salmon
Dom Pérignon
Brut Champagne Blend Rosé 2008
#AgedWineTuesday
HURRICANE PARTY
Pale salmon in color.
Light nose of citrus, strawberries, earth, light herbs and minerals.
Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity and small bubbles.
Dry on the palate with raspberries, light cherries, limes, green apples, light grapefruits, minerals and herbs.
Long finish with limes and light almonds.
This is a delicious Rosé Champagne. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel.
This 16 year old is showing nice complexity at this point. Feels still young and very fresh. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
I've had this vintage a few times before, and it is very consistent.
A delicious Champagne that’s perfect for sipping on its own. Will also pair nicely with fresh seafood.
12.5% alcohol by volume.

Brut Champagne Blend
Pale gold with fine bubbles. Fresh aromas of green apple, pear, lemon, lime, and orange blossom. The palate offers notes of toast and pastry, balanced by high acidity and a delicate, effervescent texture. The finish is medium-plus and clean. While elegant and refined, it feels slightly restrained in its depth and complexity.
