The latest edition of Billecart-Salmon's ongoing range of single grape variety-focused, limited edition Rendez-vous bottlings turns to Pinot Noir in the great south-facing Montagne de Reims grand cru of Ambonnay, all from the solar and generous 2018 vintage. The easy, ripe charm of 2018 is certainly at play here, but this wine is all about Ambonnay perfume. Blackberry and black cherry, apricot kernel and even gentle tropical notes like passion fruit meet intriguing kumquat and slightly smoky, reductive complexity in a set of aromas that constantly engage. With no oak in the picture it's bright and pure in style, not vinous or heavy for blanc de noirs but rather fluent, charming and accessible.
