Overview
Billecart-Salmon Le Clos St Hilaire 2003
Introduction:
Rarity and complexity
This unique Blanc de Noirs cuvée bears the name of the patron saint of Mareuil-sur-Aÿ.
This one-hectare clos adheres to strict standards: a single, enclosed, undivided plot of land, with a complete winemaking facility on site.
This astonishingly characteristic single-variety Champagne has all the qualities expected of a truly great, deep, unique vin de garde.
Formulation:
From a single parcel comprised of one enclosed hectare of old Pinot Noir vines planted in 1964.
100% vinified in oak casks
Time on lees / in cellar: 14 years
Dosage: 3.5g/l
Available format and recommended ageing potential:
Bottle: more than 10 years
Tasting Notes:
The distinctive character of a sunny year combined with an early harvest has produced a very deep golden yellow hue. A luminous radiance, with persistent, ultra-fine bubbles.
A noble, elegant expression and an extremely complex, vinous impact on the nose (candied citrus fruit, crushed hazelnut and almond, mild tobacco).
Develops with a resplendently honeyed expansiveness featuring nuts and oriental spices.
In the mouth, an ample texture with the patina of oak ageing and hints of yellow fruit in syrup (Williams pear and fresh quince) and panettone.
A richness overflowing with flavours (roasted pineapple, puffed buckwheat and precious woods). The generosity of this wine transports the finish to rooty, mineral realms, with an attractive saline character.
Serving:
This rare vintage of unique, monumental character will consist of no more than 1000 bottles.
When served at cellar temperature (12/14°), this microcuvée will surprise your palate when served with a rodfished bass, shellfish and Ossetra caviar.
