Billecart-Salmon's Le Reserve (formerly Brut Réserve) blends 28% Pinot Noir, 29% Chardonnay and 43% Meunier from top sites, incorporating over 50% reserve wines for consistency. Extended lees ageing (50 months) adds creaminess and depth while preserving lightness. The low dosage emphasizes purity and minerality.
