Billecart-Salmon has added the ingenious feature called "My Origin" on the bottom of the back label. Just type in the code number and get every detail about this particular bottle, but here's a quick synopsis:
Cuvée Sous Bois is a blend of 28% Pinot Noir, 43% Chard {all Grands Crus de la Côte des Blancs}, and 29% Meunier from Vallée de la Marne vinified by Florent Nys in the house's 26 large oak barrels, exclusively. Two-thirds of the base wine is from 2017 and the rest is reserve vino going back to 2006. Expect lots of pastry, butter bread like brioche, panettone, cherry-cheese Danish, baking spice, flower blossoms, chalk, minerals, and orchard fruit. Sous Bois is a natural pairing with cheese as the centerpiece, think Lobster Mac & cheese, as well as mushrooms, foie gras, and white protein.
