Champagne Billecart-Salmon Louis Salmon 2009 Review

A tribute to Louis, Elisabeth Salmon’s brother, this wine is a show of sense-of-place. Louis was a lover of terroir and this wine is an expression of the best parcels of their holdings in the Côte des Blancs. This bottle is all about minerality. It's refreshing with hints of citrus and lemon oil, but finishes with a creamy mouthfeel that has just the right amount of depth. It’s aging wonderfully, and is a pleasure to sip now.
