Estate
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 totaling 300 hectares across 40 crus of the Champagne region. The majority of the grapes used for vinification come from a radius of 20km around Epernay, where the Grand Crus of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay co-exist, in the ethereal vineyards of the Montagne de Reims, the Vallée de la Marne and the Côte des Blancs.
Food pairing
Its strength of character and integrity make it the ideal accompaniment to hard cheeses, white meats
with morel mushrooms, or Girolle mushrooms. Serve at 10 degrees celcius.
Tasting notes
This unique cuvee, which is entirely vinified in oak, is composed of the three Champenois grape varieties. It totally
masters the art of blending by renewing the ancestral spirit and savoir-faire of the original champagnes.
A burst of flavors showcasing subtle notes (milk rolls, melted butter, and gentle spices), ideal for the development of fine Champagne wines enriched by meticulous ageing.
