{"product_id":"billecart-salmon-champagne-le-sous-bois-nv-750ml","title":"Billecart-Salmon, Champagne \"Le Sous Bois\", NV","description":"\u003cp\u003e“Brut Sous Bois” is one of the most distinctive wines in Billecart-Salmon’s lineup, crafted entirely from wines vinified in oak barrels—a nod to the way Champagne was traditionally made before stainless steel took over. The name translates to “under wood,” referring to this full-barrel fermentation and aging, which adds depth and texture to the final wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s a blend of all three Champagne grapes—Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier—sourced from Premier and Grand Cru vineyards across the Montagne de Reims, Côte des Blancs, and Vallée de la Marne. The base wines go through full malolactic fermentation and are then aged in used oak barrels (not new), preserving freshness while adding subtle oxidative complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter secondary fermentation, the wine spends six to seven years on the lees, far longer than typical NV Champagnes. The dosage is moderate, around 7 g\/L, which balances the wine’s natural structure and toastiness without tipping into richness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBrut Sous Bois offers a layered profile of baked orchard fruit, spice, roasted nuts, and saline minerality, with a creamy texture and long, dry finish. It’s Champagne for those who enjoy the intersection of classic and bold, with structure that makes it highly versatile at the table.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"T.
