Billecart-Salmon

Cuvée Nicolas François Billecart Brut Champagne Blend 2008

Paaslunch op huis tuin en keukenniveau

Soms klopt alles. Gisteren was zo’n wijnmoment, vandaag was het weer zo’n moment waarop smaken, gezelschap en een glas uitzonderlijke champagne perfect samenkwamen.

In het glas: Billecart-Salmon Cuvée Nicolas François 2008, een champagne met klasse, precisie en diepgang. Rijp en gelaagd, met tonen van geroosterde noten, citruszeste en subtiele brioche.

De mousse verfijnd, de afdronk eindeloos. Voor mij is deze champagne geen aperitief maar dit is een hoofdrolspeler.

De pairing?
Oesters, puur, zilt en perfect in balans met de frisheid.

Tartaar van wortel, sjalot, cornichon en kappertjes met sriracha-mayo, spannend en licht pikant, prachtig gedragen door de structuur van de wijn

Asperges met mousseline, gerookte zalm en Hollandaise, romig, rijk en precies waar deze champagne zijn diepte laat zien

Een paaslunch die nog wel even blijft hangen. De chef van de Kwalitaria was in vorm 😉

Forêt Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2004

My favorite Raveneau vintage and 2004 is absolutely pristine showing everything you could want from the legend—Captivating aromatics, a powerful, voluminous and waxy textured palate that comes with age, racy lemony acids and crystalline minerality. Not only is this brilliant vintage chiseled and laser focused but there is tremendous richness, weight and density. Finish just stays with you. The best showing I’ve had from the Forêt vineyard. — 3 months ago

La Grande Côte Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2008

Old Sancerre, such a rarity, preserves that precision focused acidity and notes of dried lemon, dried pineapple and dried peach. Finish is refreshing. Wow. — 5 months ago

Chapelot Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 1989

Butterscotch, nutty, bottle sweetness, still a great fill level, plenty of acid to keep it from being cloying, lingering finish, I’m aware this was likely better 10-15 years ago, but it’s hanging in there, down to my last mixed dozen of 1989 and 1990 Raveneau purchased on release!! — 3 months ago

@Dave i would also try Bessin, Droin, Picq, and Gautheron if you come across them. Tribut is great value. There’s a family connection to Dauvissat, if memory serves. I also love Pattes Loup and De Moor, in a more oxidized style.

@Doug Powers yes, Jean Dauvissat Pere et Fils run by the great Fabien Dauvissat is one the young bright lights in Chablis.
