Billecart Salmon Cuvee Nicolas Francois - 2006 (750ml) Size:750ml The 2007 Les Pavots97 points Vinous The 2006 Cuvee Nicolas Francois Billecart is shaping up to be a jewel of a wine, but it needs time to be at its best. I am surprised by how tightly wound it is. But that only makes me think what it might develop into with time in the cellar. Lemon confit, white flowers, mint, crushed rocks and sage meld together in a bright, crystalline Champagne endowed with terrific purity. The 2006 is 60% Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims and
