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
An exceptional fermentation with a mineral, chalky style, perfectly complementing Oscietre caviar or select
noble fish served as carpaccio or ceviche. Serve at 10 degrees celcius.
Tasting notes
This cuvee, crafted from a blend of grand cru parcels, highlights the distinctive character of Chardonnay from the Cote des
Blancs. Its complexity, striking minerality, and notably chalky finish are particularly appreciated by a following of
informed wine lovers.
A creamy sensation with a chalky and meringue texture, associated with nuances of fresh almonds, citrus zest, and lemony notes. An exquisitely refined and persistent smoothness, finishing with a delicate touch of salinity.
