{"product_id":"2012-billecart-salmon-cuvee-louis-blanc-de-blancs","title":"2012 Billecart-Salmon Cuvee Louis Blanc de Blancs","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eNamed after Louis Salmon, Elisabeth's brother and a passionate student of oenology, Cuvée Louis is Billecart-Salmon's prestige Blanc de Blancs. Sourced exclusively from four Grand Cru villages on the Côte des Blancs, Mesnil-sur-Oger, Chouilly, Cramant and Oiry, it is among the most pedigreed expressions of Chardonnay in all of Champagne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe 2012 was a challenging year, beset by frost, hail, heavy rain, mildew and sunburn at various points in the season. Low yields were the result, and with them, extraordinary concentration. Vinified 75% in tank and 25% in old oak, with most lots undergoing malolactic fermentation, the wine was aged 115 months on the lees before disgorgement. Dosage: 3.9 g\/L. The result is powerful and dense, yet retains the electric, flinty freshness that defines great Blanc de Blancs from this corner of the Côte des Blancs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eRated 99 points by James Suckling, 98 by Owen Bargreen, 97 by Antonio Galloni (Vinous) and 96 by Tom Hewson (Decanter). A wine of extraordinary depth with decades of development ahead.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lamont's Cottesloe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48786145542363,"sku":null,"price":445.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/1251\/5803\/files\/2012-billecart-salmon-cuvee-louis-blanc-de-blancs-4738517.png?v=1779175382","url":"https:\/\/shop.lamontscott.com.au\/products\/2012-billecart-salmon-cuvee-louis-blanc-de-blancs","provider":"Lamont's Cottesloe","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
