Beautiful and fruity :) — 9 years ago
Gorgeous nose, huge fruit, blood, violets, meat, and a hint of mint. Gorgeous and pure, with amazing drinkability and unreal purity. One of the best VDF wines I’ve ever tasted. — 2 months ago


Black fruit, caramel, licorice and a nice hint of menthol on the nose, dried fruits with some licorice on the palate — 5 years ago
Bleu cheese and nuts. Characteristics I never would have thought I would have liked in a wine but here we are. — 7 years ago
Honeyed nose, with peach, apricot, citrus, wet stones, subtle oak and med acid. Oak comes through more on the palate, but isn't intrusive. Nutty, medium bodied, waxy and round in the mouth. Intriguing wine.. ABV a bit up there for me, 14%, but balanced. I'm a fan. BBQ pork loin working well. — 9 years ago
Besserat de Bellefon “Bleu Brut” NV, Champagne, France 🇫🇷
Overview
A gastronomic Champagne crafted by Besserat de Bellefon, known for producing wines designed specifically for food pairing. This cuvée is composed of 45% Pinot Meunier, 30% Chardonnay, and 25% Pinot Noir, with disgorgement in January 2022. The house style intentionally uses a lower dosage during secondary fermentation to create a softer, finer mousse.
Aromas & Flavors
Intense yeasty notes, lime blossom, fresh citrus, and baked brioche. With air, hints of honeysuckle, toasted hazelnut, and subtle pastry cream begin to emerge.
Mouthfeel
Medium-bodied with an elegant and diaphanous mousse. The bubbles are extremely fine and silky, creating a refined texture while maintaining vibrant freshness and balance.
Food Pairings
Oysters, scallops, sushi, roasted chicken, creamy cheeses, or mushroom-based dishes.
Verdict
A refined and gastronomic Champagne that prioritizes texture and finesse over aggressive effervescence. Elegant, balanced, and built to shine at the table.
Did You Know?
Besserat de Bellefon intentionally reduces the pressure during secondary fermentation to about 4.5 atmospheres instead of the usual 6, creating a softer, creamier mousse designed to pair seamlessly with food.
