Sparkling wine
Billecart Salmon, Le Clos Saint-Hilaire 1996
RRP £420
Old vines sourced from a single plot of Pinot Noir, this is from its original disgorgement release, 2006. The nose opens up to honey and grilled hazelnut, showing its evolution but in an elegant, easy way. It is complex, generous, with plenty of well-integrated rich fruit and oak characters.
