Captivating and Original
This unique cuvée. which is entirely vinified in oak. is composed of the three Champenois grape varieties. It totally masters the art of blending by renewing the ancestral spirit and savoir-faire of the original champagnes.

Aromas of almond paste. green orchard fruit. citrus oil and pastry cream introduce the latest example of Billecart’s NV Brut Sous Bois. a bottling that’s based on the 2009 vintage. The oak influence is much less pronounced than was the case with some of the early renditions of this cuvée. and it’s really going from strength to strength. revealing a medium to full-bodied palate that’s broad-shoulder and structured. with lively underpinning acids.
