Billecart-Salmon Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru

Delicate and elegant Champagne made from 100% chardonnay.

A perfect balance between delicacy and elegance with intense aromas of almonds, hazelnuts, dried fruits and brioche. The palate gives you fresh peach and nectarine with a fine mousse and delicate bubbles which accompany the golden tones in the glass. The persistent finish and minerality on the palate make this a perfect accomplement to fish.  

The champagnes of Maison Billecart-Salmon are above all created thanks to the knowledge of the men who rigorously cultivate an estate of 100 hectares, obtaining grapes from an area totalling 300 hectares across 40 crus of the Champagne region.

Champagne

Champagne

Hailing from northern France, Champagne is the most iconic sparkling wine in the world. Producing both white and rosé wines, Champagne is typically a blend of three varieties – Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.

To achieve a consistent house-style, many Champagnes are a blend of base wines from several vintages, referred to as non-vintage. These have been aged for a minimum of 15 months before release and are typically dry with high acidity, notes of apple and light toast/brioche flavours.

Vintage Champagnes are made in exceptional years, and these are aged for a minimum of 36 months. These wines typically have pronounced apple, citrus and biscuit flavours. Special Cuvée Champagnes often are aged for much longer, developing complex, nutty, honeyed notes.
