Written Notes
This is a real direct hit with layers of mature fruitiness, sweets, roasted coffee beans and the typical Billecart charm. Expressive and elegant, with substance.
Billecart-Salmon Grand Cuvée 1996
Open, complex and maturing nose, very toasty with golden apples and pears drenched in butter, caramel, orange zest, Tarte Tatin, citrus and smokey notes.
Full and racy on the palate with great balance and power. Rich flavors that mirrors the nose with caramelized apples and pears in pastry with butter and citrus. Tightens up on the very long finish with a superbly balanced and racy acidity. Ends on a fresh and mineral note. Excellent as always. Tasted 8 times with consistent notes.

Stunning at this point. Plenty of power with lemon curd, orange peel, leading towards a super-crisp finish.
Medium-deep lemon-gold colour. Waxy and spicy, evolved and honeyed nose. Intensie and chewy. Monster on the palate, so intense , so firm and focused. So fresh, chewy monster.I like the harmony
