Champagne Billecart-Salmon Le Réserve Magnum

The Champagne Billecart-Salmon Le Réserve Magnum represents one of the most refined interpretations of the Maison, designed for those seeking balance, finesse, and stylistic continuity in a large format.

The Magnum format further enhances the wine's evolution, making it ideal for convivial moments and important occasions.

Territory and wine style

This Champagne comes from a selection of grapes harvested in several municipalities of the denomination, following the historical approach of the Billecart-Salmon Maison. The blend, which has remained consistent over time, reflects the classic style of the house: precision, aromatic cleanliness, and great balance among the wine's components. The secondary fermentation occurs according to the Metodo Classico, with a long aging on the lees that contributes to the complexity and finesse of the bubble. The result is an elegantly structured Champagne, capable of expressing both immediacy and depth.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents a fine and continuous perlage, accompanied by a delicate and clear aromatic profile. On the nose, sensations of white-fleshed fruit, citrus, small berries, and slight hints of pastry and bread crust emerge, with the freshness of Chardonnay supporting the bouquet. On the palate, the sip is harmonious, dry, and well-balanced, with a creamy texture and a nice acidic tension that extends the finish. The dosage and blending contribute to a balanced taste, never heavy, with a clean and persistent closure.

Recommended pairings

The Champagne Billecart-Salmon Le Réserve Magnum pairs naturally with seafood appetizers, fish tartare, shellfish, sushi, and delicate dishes based on salmon or sea bass.
