97 Points

Wednesday, February 25, 2009 - Sushi night - that means Champagne. This follows on the heels of the '96 Salon last week. While the Salon (Blanc de Blancs) was all about green apples, the Billecart (Blanc de Noirs) was much more complex and open. The nose had just the right amount of yeast with a touch of caramel. The palate starts with walnuts then evolves to white peaches and finishes with lemon and minerals. The acidity is high, but no tartness at all. Lots of wonderful bubbles, but not even a touch of bubble burn.
