It’s not every day that you get to enjoy a champagne as extravagant as this, but drinking Billecart-Salmon’s prestige cuvée is a treat of extraordinary delight. The wine itself is absolutely brilliant, still as lively and fresh as it was the day that it was released. You often hear about champagne being fine in texture, but few champagnes possess such a silky and pinpoint texture as this one. It emphasizes the purity and finesse of the vintage rather than the power, and in fact, it feels distinctly delicate.
The middle year of the great trio of exceptional successive vintages, 1989 was a vintage not without its problems, for the cheaper, earlier-released Champagnes. Very few truly great 1989s became commercially available. Billecart-Salmon, Cuvee Nicolas Francois, Brut 1989 is a beautifully harmonious and balanced wine. With the ability to age very well.
Happy 27th Christmas!!
Billecart-Salmon is one of the few remaining Champagne houses to be owned by the original family and was established in 1818 by Nicolas-François Billecart.
