The champagne Billecart-Salmon Clos Saint-Hilaire, vintage 1999 from the winery Champagne Billecart-Salmon has been rated in 2021 by Anne Krebiehl MW with 96 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Pinot Noir from the region Champagne in France.
A touch of grilled cashew shows the most evolution so far on the nose, alongside an edge of caramel and tart yellow apple. The palate, on the other hand is vividly fresh and shows a depth of miso, of slow-cooked duxelles, a certain saltiness, a rounded, savoury generosity. An atypical Clos St Hilaire made for the table.
